WPIAL CHAMPIONSHIPS CHANGED TO COOPER 'S LAKE CAMPGROUND
Because of renovations at Slippery Rock University, the WPIAL cross country championships will be held at nearby Cooper's Lake Campground on October 27. The Tri-State Coaches will also hold its annual meet at Cooper's Lake on October 20. Slippery Rock officials will continue to run both events.
According to Baldwin coach Rich Wright, "It seems like it'll be a well laid-out course. It will give runners an opportunity to run at a new venue."
