Tia Wilson took the U17/15/13 Best Performance Trophy with a series of top ten performances in National Championships and 11th in the School’s International race. Darren Deed along with internationals, Matt Bergin, Alex Short and Ben Davies were in the running for the Best Senior Performance trophy, but were trumped by the stellar season enjoyed by Rebecca Murray culminating in her 43rd place at the World Senior Cross Country Championships in Kampala, Uganda.
