10th Annual Metro Catholic Conference Championships
October 13, 2001
@ Chaminade College Prep

Congratulations to the SLUH XC team for this performance on the most memorable of days. Running on a course covered almost entirely in mud or standing water, the varsity team was able to gain an eye-opening victory. The JV performed excellent as well, sweeping places 1-5 for the victory. The freshman team laid their race out on the line, but were unfortunately unable to get the job done. Congrats to them for a gutsy race, though. SLUH had two individual conference champs as well. Congrats to Charlie Samson for winning the freshman race, and sophomore Andrew Linhares for winning the JV race.
