Kearney runner wins Mayor’s Cup
BY JULIETTE PUCCINI TUGANDER
Bishop Kearney High School’s Freshman Cross Country team posted an outstanding performance at the New York City Mayor’s Cup race. The race was held over the rugged hills of Van Cortlandt Park in the Bronx.
Forty-eight teams from the CHSAA, PSAL and private schools competed for the title of Mayor’s Cup Champion. Theresa (Tessy) Gallagher sprinted to the front with the sound of the starter’s gun and never looked back until she crossed the finished line and was crowned 2012 Mayor’s Cup Champion.
