[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Usually no one gets cut from track and cross country. They are considered "social sports". In fact at some schools there are so many team members that the coach can't keep track of all of them.[/quote] The reason that track and XC don't cut is that it takes years of running to develop a runner, and most kids don't run until MS or HS. Often you can't tell what a freshman will do by senior year. Runners dislike and are kind of baffled by kids who join their teams looking to socialize. If kids are not good but willing to run hard that's ok. Kids who join the team and then don't do the work are hated. As a coach, I struggled with those kids, but fortunately did not deal with them much. [/quote]
