2017 Cross Country Results
The 2017 Cross Country was run on the kind of grey-damp morning that passes for autumn in Hamilton, and even though the mud factor in the gully was described by several students as disappointing, it didn't stop them energetically jumping in it or enjoying the chance to get out of class and burn up some energy. As this is a major House Competition event, serious points were on the line, and another strong performance by Argyle House helped them to stretch out their lead just that bit further. Taylor is yapping at their heels in second place, whilst there is a Wilson-Steel-Baigent log-jam vying for third. Tait is currently languishing in sixth, but we all know how quickly things can change at this early stage in the year. Congratulations to our age group champions, and thanks to Mr Alby Ellis and the HPW Faculty for organising this event. Sterling work on the motorbike too, Mr Cooley!
