The Ithaca College Men’s Cross Country Team had a record crowd yesterday, as tickets were made available for the Annual Cortaca Jug game. The distribution of the tickets took place between 4pm and 10pm in the Hill Center Lobby. As many eager students waited in line to obtain their pass to inebriated fanship, the members of the cross country team performed their daily core and flexibility exercises in front of the gymnasium. The last time students saw the team run was when some girl was doing the walk of shame from the Circles as the Alumni Run, which loops around the rape trail – er Flora Brown Drive – and the trails behind Terraces, took off.
Senior cross country runner Scott Walker claims that “he’s never seen so many people,” to watch cross country practice, no less.
Fed Jimenez was among those in line as the team was preparing for their Tuesday long-run: “I was by uh, Conservatory Circle, in line for my ticket, and I saw all these mufqers in short shorts and tank tops doing push-ups, sit-ups, leg swings. Pssh, I didn’t care about seeing that. I just wanted my ticket. Chump!”
Ticket distribution continues today outside the Ben Light Gymnasium from 4 til 10. The cross-country team will be performing drills from 4:00 til 4:15 in front of the Hill Center. In case of rain, catch them doing their exercises inside the gym.
