PRACTICE/MEET SCHEDULES
Please be reference our practice schedule and 2020 meet schedule as outlined below!
Our typical practice week while at school will follow this schedule and will rarely change. Stay connected to Remind messages for updates in case there are any changes in times or locations:
Group 4: all beginners who run the least mileage will finish at 3pm at school, until they get moved up to group 3. Just ask Coach if you have questions and don't miss practice time.
Groups 2-3: run wherever the team is going and usually finish by 4:30
Group 1: normally doing more practice, does not finish strictly at 4:30 but rather as soon as they are done
Mondays/Tuesdays/Wednesdays: groups 1-3 will normally finish at Guajome Park at 4:30
Thursdays: we sometimes end at Vista Sports Park, Coach will send a Remind message
Fridays: Normal 4:30 finish at school
When school is in session, we will typically practice during 6th period, and daily from 2:40-4:30. We train in 4 groups, and Group 1, normally doing more practice, does not finish strictly at 4:30 but rather as soon as they are done. You'll need to watch the Remind messages in the event a practice time or location is changed.

Scoring:
Cross Country is a competition where the low-score wins, where 1st place = 1 pt, 2nd= 2 pts, 10th= 10 (perfect score =15) 5 runners will score. The #6 runner can break a tie. The #7 runner can essentially "raise" the score of other teams but displacing them. League Cluster meets are currently scored with "invitational" scoring, where all 6 teams are against each other separately, versus a "dual" where teams go head-to-head.
Example:
Vista 15, Sage Creek 23, EC 64, SDA 120, RBV 133, O'side 162
(Vista is now 5-0 W/L, EC is 3-2, etc)
