Yorkville Middle School Cross Country

Hoolie to the DR

July 17, 2012

In one week, Coach Holehan, who coached cross country and track at Yorkville High School, will be heading to the Dominican Republic where he will be teaching for two years. The Dominican Republic has the worst education system in the Americas and the school Hoolie will be working at provides full scholarships to half of its students based on need.

Hoolie needs to raise a lot of money over the next two years to support his work at Doulos Discovery School so if you can help out please go to his website to make a one-time or a monthly donation. The video below is from his going-away party and he explains some more about what he will be doing. We'll miss you, Hoolie!

what? noooo, broke was really good though. but good for her she wants to work on swim

User Comment Coach Miller on July 20, 2012

I know. It's too bad since I don't think her swim season starts until mid-September and I know she enjoyed her time on our team last year. We tried to work something out but she really wants to focus on swim team.

brooke isnt doing cross country

User Comment Coach Miller on July 20, 2012

The leaderboards are generated automatically and there is no information about what place they finished in. Since Maddie comes before Rebecca alphabetically she made it on the list. I have a feeling that time won't be on the list past this season, though, since we have a really good girls team.
