The long and short of it was mud and more mud, and a steady rain on Saturday, October 24. Eagles ran in the later Varsity 3 races, and the course was badly mucked up by the time they ran. Many runners fell on the hill, and times were much slower than usual. The rain also affected certain cameras, causing one in particular to go into a twittering frenzy during both of the Varsity 3 races, and nothing was filmed of the middle of the girls race or most of the boys later stage and finish except for a fuzzy section when George Epstein finished.
Ah well. Parts of all the Varsity races included except boys Varsity 1 since the team was still in the bus. Also some segments from girls JV.

Bobcat Run - 2009, Boys Races
Tough slogging but very nice results for Dobbs Ferry Eagles at the 2009 Byram Hills Bobcat run. After preceding rain the course had some mucky spots, but the "choose your own adventure" option on one section of the course is a big hit with runners. Pat Wortner comes out of woods loops in first and cruises to 1st place. Brendan Wortner grabs 5th, George Epstein takes 20th place medal, and James Majeau takes Dobbs' 4th spot for Eagles, who were a DNS. The rest of the team ran in the freshman race as Harry Wagner grabbed 5th place and Grant Sheely a 7th place medal, and Keith Hickey got 62nd.
