2009 AUS first team all-star and CIS second team all-Canadian Caroline Schlosser (Edmonton, Alberta) returns to the roster along with fellow AUS first team all-star and Dalhousie Rookie of the Year Cara Groves (Richmond Hill, Ont). The Tigers have added St. FX transfer and 2008 CIS second team all-Canadian Gina Stewart, and look forward to the return of a number of strong senior athletes including Halifax natives Stephanie Bennett and Sarah Currie, Shannon McCarey (Rothesay, N.B.), Gwendolyn Muir (Knowlton, Que.), Erin Ready (Lindsay, Ont.), Erin Maguire (Paget, Bermuda), and Emily Meisner (Brookfield, N.S.). Combined with a handful of fresh faces and young talent joining the team, this outstanding squad ensures an exciting season.
The Tigers look forward to hosting the Dalhousie Invitational Cross Country Meet, Saturday, September 25, on their home course in Point Pleasant Park.
The team will enjoy a full competition schedule including all the conference league meets and an interlock with the Quebec conference in Sherbrooke, the grounds of the 2010 CIS Championships.
Men’s cross country outlook
The Dalhousie Tigers are hungry after finishing second to St. FX’s CIS bronze medal team last year at the AUS Championships. The 2010 team looks poised to battle for Atlantic conference supremacy following a breakthrough summer for many returning athletes and the addition of new talent.??
Middle distance specialist Dan Gorman (Halifax, NS), will return to lead Tiger teammates Ryan Kiros (Etobicoke, Ont.), Bruce Russell (Halifax, N.S.), Justin Vere (Dorchester, Ont.), and Josh Coyle (Cobourg, Ont.) who are all showing significant improvement over a very dedicated summer season.
Adam MacGregor, Jake Moore and a cast of speedy recruits will play an important role this season and lead the Tigers toward continued success over the next few years. The Tigers will once again enjoy a full competition schedule including all the conference league meets and core out-of-province competition which will include some of the very best meets in the CIS. This year's mixture of veterans and new faces ensures that the Tigers will remain a perennial force for the foreseeable future.
