UDXC PHILOSOPHY
The UDHS cross-country team is dedicated to hard work, good sportsmanship, teamwork, strong academics, and the dedication to achieve success. Cross-country is a great, life-long sport, that will teach you many lessons such as responsibility, character, respect, confidence, leadership, and discipline.
WHAT IS XC?
- Everyone runs 5k (3.1 miles)
- The place where you finish is your score.
- We get a team score by adding up the first 5 finishers’ scores/places.
- If there is a tie, we use the 6th and/or 7th runner on each team.
