2013 American Independent Schools Challenge

Unfortunately we will canceling this year's event due to the small number of schools.

Recent changes in the sanctioning of North Carolina and South Carolina independent schools now allow those schools to compete in the Great American Cross Country Festival. We welcome participation in that event: Great American Cross Country Festival.

We apologize for any inconvenience.
