Emily Flagg shines at the Catholic Memorial Invitational

The Boston Herald
Franklin Park’s sights and sounds were a bit more noticeable Saturday with hundreds of young athletes racing through the city landmark in the latest Catholic Memorial Invite.

“This is our 63rd annual Catholic Memorial Invitational,” said Catholic Memorial athletic director Thomas Claiborne. “It’s a very, very big event. It’s great to get all the schools together, get schools from all over New England. Our coach, John (Finn), does a great job getting our schools invited to come down, and running this event. From what I heard, we had 53 teams entered in today, so that’s around 1,100 kids.”

The course presented a three-lap track spanning 3.1 miles, wrapping around Franklin Park Zoo and White Stadium with a slight series of tricks and obstacles. Emily Flagg quickly left her stamp on things in the varsity girls 5K by blazing to a winning time of 17:48.4. The Whitinsville Christian sophomore bested the field by 1:02.8. Click here to read more.
