The Law boys cross country season has just come to an end.

Three of the captains are leaving the team this year, including senior Mike Loschiavo. Loschiavo was the varsity team’s captain and best runner for the past four years.

“I feel like high school just flew by and I will miss everyone so much,” Loschiavo said. “From freshman year to senior year I’ve built so many different relationships with different people and I have had so many close friends and it’s going to be sad to leave them.”

Law finished its fall season on a high note. The team competed October 17 at East Shore Park in the Class M Championships. The top five boys for Law were: Loschiavo – 18:02, Liam Fedigan – 18:53, Amir Elhelw– 19:33, Mayur Somalinga – 20:35, and Jack Aliberti – 20:52.

The team also had a successful showing at SCCs.

“I feel proud that I made states this year,” junior Charles Wang said. “I had some injuries this season and thought I was gonna be out but I pushed through and in the end it worked out.”

The team ended up going 9-6 during the regular season. 

Law competed October 26 at Wickham Park for the Class M State Championship. The top five boys for Law were: Mike Loschiavo – 17:47, Liam Fedigan – 18:27, Amir Elhelw– 19:12, Mayur Somalinga – 20:01, and Jack Aliberti – 20:03.

The team has some big shoes to fill next year with several seniors departing. 

“There are many junior runners that look like they could be the top captain this next upcoming year,” junior Max Wischow said. “We have a lot of talent and it’s going to be hard to choose captains next year because not everyone could be a captain.”
