I traveled to suburban Philly on Friday for a 12 Hour stint in the
JTP. Twelve hours in Jenkintown and 3 trips to the best convenience store experience in the nation,
WaWa!
I was there to visit another Penn State Branch Campus,
Penn State Abington. Which happens to be undergoing
a Renaissance in Cross Country under head coach
Jim McClernand. Jim happens to be a friend of
Hugh Hamill since their 3rd grade year in the Suburban Philly environs. They ran for the powerhouse
Father Judge teams in a time before they invented color photos! hee hee hee

PSU Abington XC, 2nd at the Immaculata Invitational. |
And in other Track Alumni News, Coach Ryan Foster backed up his victory in the Kilted Mile with a
victory for the Edinboro Fighting Scots in the Womens PSAC Championships over Shippensburg. The Mens team perfomed well, finishing second.

And in that
other weekend event, everyone needs to thank me for not watching at all, as that ensured the great performance.
I think it is now 11 times in a row that my watching or not watching correlated directly with the performance of the team. I will be taking donations to ensure I don't watch the next one in Columbus. Any takers?
