2005 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 24, 2005
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 challenging
with a mixture of flats, meadows, hills, and wooded trails. The course starts and finishes inside
“Knights Stadium” and is very viewer friendly.
Course and meet record holders are Ryan Skotnicki of University High
