The Medford High School cross-country teams took on host Somerville at the Blessing of the Bay Boat House. The temperatures were ideal for running, albeit quite windy.
The Medford boys (1-1) faced probably the top team in the Greater Boston League [GBL] this year, and as a result they lost the meet, 23-37. Despite the loss, their efforts resulted in some excellent times on the 2.5-mile course, according to coach Lou Ruggiero.
“Several of our runners showed great improvement, which is what I was looking for,” the coach added.
