THE DISTANCE
An event founded by coach Bill Squires, the 55th annual Codfish Bowl will feature a women's 5k followed by a men's 8k at Franklin Park.
COACH'S QUOTE
"Saturday will be an opportunity for our athletes who will not be traveling to Wisconsin to get another race prior to the Suffolk Invite," head coach Will Feldman said. "It's important for this group to gain more experience racing as we will be looking for them to potentially step up at conference if someone goes down with an injury at the end of the season."

- Matthew McGoldrick will race his first-ever 8k.
