Workout Wednesday: York HS


York High School in Elmhurst, IL has been a power house in XC since legendary coach, Joe Newton took over in 1960. Since 1960 Newton and his York Dukes have won an amazing 26 state titles. York also won the national title in 2004 at Nike Team Nationals. Newton believes the 2007 team has a shot at state but they are not as stacked as in years past. Coach Newton has his boys doing 5 x 1 miles on this Monday (Oct 1st) afternoon. THe music is by Tiesto (Sorry Kieth). There is a movie about Coach Newton and the York Dynasty in production, hoping to be released soon called “The Long Green Line”.
