SHP Harriers Take State Prep X-C Crown

The Seton Hall Prep Cross Country team claimed its first NJISAA Prep State Championship in 10 years after a several year hiatus from the race. On an unfamiliar and challenging course at Blair Academy, the Pirates set out to run a smart first mile on a hilly course with several sudden and steep downhills... 
     Senior co-captains Nolan Orr and Colin Schweitzer came through the 1st mile in a pack of four in 5:05. By the 2nd mile Schweitzer and Krishna Kakani from Peddie ran side by side as they separated from the pack. Orr did not let the gap widen and fought to keep contact. On the long grassy flats, Schweitzer fought off a determined runner from Hun and Orr followed close behind, finishing in 2nd (16:27) and 5th (16:32) respectively. Junior Kevin Harvey (7th-17:00), junior Luke Incardona (14th-17:40) and sophomore Ben Ferrara (16th-17:46) completed the scoring for the Pirates. The team posted a 17:05 team average. Sophomore Danny Collum (17:55) and senior Brian Phillips (18:02) rounded out the Varsity seven.
