Lussier and Skrabal Capture 2004 NJ Series Championship Titles
Iwan and Rogers Claim Titles of NJ State Champion

September's race was our Series finale, and participants who completed two of the three 5K's and the 8K were scored for Series Awards, and the NJ State Champions were announced. Zbysek Skrabal and Rachel Lussier dominated the competition this season, easily repeating as NJ Series Champions. At the completion of September's race, Rachel had accrued a 2:21 lead by combining season-long strong running with great marksmanship. Zbysek Skrabal was simply untouchable this year, missing only one target all season, creating a 3:41 lead. Congratulations to Zbysek, Rachel and all our athletes on a fun, enjoyable season!
