The Central Mass Striders masters team (40+) finished third out of eight teams that competed in the New England Cross Country Championships at Stanley Park in Westfield, MA. The race was held under sunny skies in the mid 40's. The third place finish was their highest finish since 2009 where they finished 4^th out of 12 teams.

The masters were led by Greg Putnam (4^th overall, 26:43) - just twenty four seconds behind winner, Mike Nahom, who led the Greater Springfield Harriers to the team win. Dave Dunham and Joe Shairs dueled throughout to finish 13^th and 14^th overall while breaking 28 minutes. Greg Ward finished strong in the last mile twenty seconds later in 20^th while Dan Verrington capped off the scoring seven seconds later in 22^nd place. Arthur Besse and David Mingori came on strong down the final stretch, getting in front of competitors for displacement, finishing 31st and 42^nd.
