Boys Cross Country

  • Mercersburg runners have competed since 1907 for one of the oldest high school cross country teams in the country. Of the school’s 54 Olympians, 17 have been runners.
  • The school’s cross country programs have produced multiple individual Mid-Atlantic Prep League champions, state team champions, and top team finishes. The team recently came in second in the 2024 Mid-Atlantic Prep League tournament.
  • Mercersburg runners have competed in college at a wide variety of schools, including Bucknell University, Emory University, Dickinson College, The Pennsylvania State University, Marist College, Rhodes College, University of Richmond, Swarthmore College, and all three Division I military academies: Army, Air Force, and Navy.
  • Runners train primarily on the Academy’s 300-acre campus, but also journey to the C&O Canal Trail and to area state parks.
