2004 Mountaintop Combo Invitational

Dear Cross Country Coaches,

The Preston High Cross Country team would like to invite you to the Mountaintop Combo Invitational. The "Mountaintop Combo" is a unique invitational that judges the top cross country school in the area. This is accomplished by adding the boys and girls team scores together to get a combined school score. We also will be sponsoring a middle school meet with the same “combined” scoring.

When: Saturday, September 25, 2004

Where: The Mountaintop Combo Invitational will take place at Preston High School in Kingwood, West Virginia. The campus of Preston High overlooks the Allegheny Front and the Cheat River Valley. The course is fast and challenging with flats, meadows, hills, woods, and is viewer friendly.
