About the Crimson Knights

Celebrating 30 Years, back in the early 1990's several parents of students at St. James School in Woodbridge - New Jersey, established the Fall Cross Country Program within the Athletic Department and with much needed help from the St. James Knights of Columbus. In 1998, the club officially became a member organization under USA Track and Field, the USA governing body of the sport and its youth committee fosters youth participation in the sports of cross country and track & field.  The club membership number is 07-0285 and is associated with USATF-NJ, a 501(c)(3) organization under USA Track and Field National in Indianapolis.  This program is unique in that the team is also supported by many different organizations in Woodbridge. Based in Woodbridge, the Crimson Knights are a Youth Cross Country team comprised of students (grades K through 8) from the Greater Middlesex County area, including southern Union County and Monmouth County. The team's regular season is comprised of youth races sponsored by other running organizations in New Jersey under the rules & regulations of USA Track & Field. This program also participates in a nationwide running competition that culminates each year at the USATF Junior Olympic National Championships. These championship races have been held in places such as South Carolina, Nevada, Georgia, Illinois, Washington, Nebraska, Kansas, Virginia, Texas, New Mexico ,Tallahassee, FL and Wisconsin for the 2019 season. The program's season starts when the school year begins. The progam has a unique history and is an excellent opportunity for students to learn the needed dedication regarding training and competition in sports. Ask the Coaches about our history that includes a few NJ State High School Group Champions, All State, All County, All Area Runners, HS League & Conference and HS Division Champions. Quite a few record holders and more ! Yes, also several college runners have earned recognition as ECAC, IC4A and Conference leaders. Also several NCAA Division 1, Division 2 and Division 3 honored runners and most recently Olympic Trials aspirations. After being involved in this sport for so long, we were bound to have some success !

 

 


Runners High - Main Street (Metuchen)

Located at 454 Main Street, Metuchen, New Jersery, 08840 732.549.9440 - This is an excellent running store to pick up a good pair of running shoes. Just say the Crimson Knight "Coaching Staff" sent you to receive a special team discount and to have your "Foot Strike" evaluated (if you are in 6th grade or higher only). Bring an old pair of running shoes with you when you go to the store, that helps in the evaluation(s).

"I firmly believe that any one person's finest hour, the greatest fulfillment of all that they may hold dear, is that moment when one realizes that they have worked their heart out in a good cause and lies exhausted on the field of battle - victorious."
