Seekonk High School booster Chris O'Halloran brings our attention to the outstanding accomplishments of the school's boys' and girls' cross country teams, which are coached by Eli Mello and his assistant Frank Mooney:

The Seekonk Boys cross country team ran an impressive fifth out of thirty-six teams in the Eastern MA Division IV Championships at Franklin Park on Saturday. The finish gives the Warriors a berth in the MA State Championship this Saturday, November 17th in Gardner MA. Seekonk was led by sophmore Johnny Gregorek, 6th overall (out of 261 runners) with a time of 16:5, and junior Sam Spencer, 18th overall, with a time of 17:38 on the 5K course.

For the Seekonk girls, junior Amanda Sweet finished 17th out of 238 with a time of 20:46, qualifying her for States.
