Girls Cross Country
Portsmouth Abbey has many varied trails and interesting areas to run. We have an excellent home cross country course that is the standard high school length of 5000 meters (about 3.1 miles). There is a place for athletes of all ability on our teams: from individual New England Champions to students that are new to the sport. Our philosophy is simple: anyone can improve with sustained work. We encourage each runner to improve by charting their progress over the season.
The Portsmouth Abbey School Cross Country team is a member of the Eastern Independent League. Outside of the league, the team has held meets with Roxbury Latin School, St. George’s School, Pomfret School, and Tabor Academy. The team practices each afternoon. EIL meets are generally on Wednesdays, with Saturdays being used for non-league races or added training. At the season's end, the team competes in the EIL Championships and the New England Prep School Division III Championships.
