Mens Surrey League 4 Report

Tim Tops the Table as Straggler Men Secure 4th Place Overall!
Tim Haughian crowned a magnificent Surrey League Cross Country season by winning the individual competition for division 2. Tim has put in four fantastic performances this year with two individual second places and two individual third places.
Tim’s 3rd place in the race also helped the Straggler men to finish in a superb 4th place overall for the season. Bizarrely on the day we finished in 7th place but crucially did more than enough to move above Reigate Prior AC from 5th to claim 4th place overall.
There were notable performances from Oliver Garner, Andrew Keane, Pete Gregorowski and Andrew Tugwell who all finished in the top fifty places on the day. The remaining scorers were Jim Lurkins, Thomas Ziegel, Charlie Jeffrey, Paul Bowden and Rob Wilcox making a flying visit from his new home in Aberdeen!
Thomas and Charlie also deserve a special mention. In the U20 rankings for division 2 Thomas finished in second place with Charlie in third. There is clearly more to come from these two young men in the future!
In very windy conditions the B team also produced a great performance securing 4th place on the day. They were led home by cross country stalwart Roy Reeder.
It was also very pleasing to have twenty six Straggler men in total taking part in the race enjoying the delights of the Lloyd Park mud!
Many thanks also go to the Ziegel family for their support on the day.
A special mention must also go to Mark Pattinson who as part of his ‘landmark’ birthday celebrations included running the race. Mark will certainly be a contender next season in his new age category. Many happy returns from the Stragglers – Mark!
