[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our FCPS HS requires freshman girls to be able to run a mile on the track under 7:30 and boys at 6:30. And you definitely need to worry about times to get on the team. I think this "cross country is no cut" is a myth at most large high schools in the area. They have to be able to run the standard and might get a second chance but there are cuts.[/quote] Just out of curiosity, how large is your school, and how many kids do they keep on the team? I live in a different part of the country. There are about 700 kids per grade. Yet such a tiny fraction goes out for XC -- they can't afford to cut. Seven boys and seven girls make varsity. Everyone else is JV. We often don't even have a full JV roster for girls. In theory, we could keep an unlimited number of kids. [/quote]
