Team Mission Statement:
COD Cross Country is committed to the success of its student-athletes both on and off the field. We believe that success is achieved through the development of a strong work ethic best exemplified by maximizing every team member's potential. Our coaches are dedicated to fostering an environment that encourages growth in all areas of our athlete's lives. Because each athlete is unique, we understand the importance of prescribing individualized goals and well-conceived training plans which adapt according to the needs of each athlete.

Effective, individualized training will be implemented through the development of a coach/athlete relationship characterized by trust and shared communication. Within this environment, a partnership emerges in which our coaches teach advanced techniques and state-of-the-art training principles while the athlete provides crucial feedback to allow for a pure assessment of accomplishments and future goals. It is our desire to motivate our student-athletes to continue to maintain a high standard of academic and fitness achievement as part of lifelong health and learning.
