Coach Melissa Hill

Welcome to the East-West Sylvan Cross Country Team 2011.  My name is Leslie Blount and I am the head coach.  Our season starts September 6^th and runs through the beginning of November.  Practices are Monday, Tuesday and Thursday 4-5:30 with meets on either Wednesday or Thursday.  EWS competes in the Willamette River League with a variety of middle schools including Lake Oswego, Waluga, Sellwood and Canby. The race distances are typically 2,000 meter for 6^th and 7^th, and 3,000 meter for 8^th graders.

Following the foot steps of it’s founder Melissa Hill, East-West Sylvan Cross Country Team is a developmental program with the goal to introduce young athletes to distance running. Practice will include running, core strengthening, stretching and a few fun games. The average weekly mileage, dependent on the athlete, will range from 6-12 miles.  Registration and information about our team can be found at www.runner2runner.com.  And if you don’t mind, please forward on to friends and parents of potential xc’ers!

Thanks, Coach Leslie Blount
