About This Site
A Quick History
This site was created in October 2003 by Mary Sachs Hanrahan to keep her family informed about the Staples High School boys' cross country team. Eventually it was opened to the Staples and FCIAC community. Over the next year, it grew to include the boys' indoor and outdoor seasons and all of the girls' teams as well. The site receives more than a two million hits a year!
With her third runner graduating from Staples in 2011, she still maintains this site as an act of love and appreciation for this sport!
Appreciation
The photos we have on the site have been taken and uploaded tirelessly by our parents. Special thanks to all our early contributors, but especially Michael Lonsdale who logged many hours taking photos in all sorts of weather.
During the
school year 2006 - 2007, Libby Spader Naficy spent countless hours updating
this site with photos and
with concession stand info. The team owes her a deep debt of gratitude!
