SPORT - CROSS COUNTRY
On Thursday afternoon, St Hugh’s sent an U11 and U13 Boys and Girls Cross Country team to compete at the Pinewood competition against 10 other schools. Amazing effort by every single participant with lots running up a year. Conditions were tough and cold, with deep mud to battle against from the very beginning. In the U11 Girls’ race, Clara C ran an incredible race finishing 4th in a tough field with Camilla H finishing close behind in 7th. The team as a whole finished a very impressive 3rd position. The U11 Boys’ race was very fast, with Theo T finishing first out of St Hugh's in a highly respectable 15th position. By the U13 Girls’ race, the mud had become a lot worse and the St Hugh's girls posted some amazing results with Nina V in 4th, Olivia E in 5th both running for the year up and Alexa H in 7th despite losing a shoe early on. 5 of the girls finished in the top 16 leading to the team finishing in 2nd place! The final race was the U13 Boys’ team where Hector H finished an impressive 10th place and Ludo G just behind in 13th. Both again running a year up! The U13 Boys’ team all ran very well and finished in 3rd place.
Very impressive overall results, especially given the tough conditions and a longer course than most have been used to.
