best cross country year in St. Sebastian’s
history! The 2.2 mile race was very much
in doubt early as no St. Sebastian’s runner
was among the top 15, but during the
second mile, as they have all year, the
Arrows rallied with each runner passing
10 or more competitors. By the end, seven
Arrows finished in the top 20. Medaling
for the St. Sebastian’s harriers were Erik
Jones ’16 (2nd), Ryan Colgan ’16 (5th),
Paul Keady ’16 (8th), Kevin Moore ’17
(11th), and Jackson Mannix ’16 (13th),
followed closely by Cole Aldrich ’16 (16th)
and Owen Finnegan ’16 (19th). The top
seven runners averaged between 6:11
and 6:32 per mile over the hilly 2.2 mile
course. Nicos Topulos ’16, John Nilles
’16, and Ben Fachetti ’16 all finished
among the top 50 racers to round out the
Arrows team. The Arrows accumulated
the fewest points ever in Jamboree history,
accumulating a mere 39 points to Fay’s
64 and Belmont Hill’s 78. For their record
setting year, the Arrows finished 26-1.
