Posted March 28th, 2015

St. Augustine Prep students took first place at the 3rd Annual Police Unity 5k Kilt Run at Washington Lake Park on Sunday, March 15th. Blaise Collins, Casey Collins, both of Egg Harbor Township, and Nick Simila, of Wenonah, finished 2nd, 3rd, and 4th respectively. Mark Taccard finished 9th in the race, while Walter Harvey, of Woolwich, and John Sabella, of Vineland also made an exceptional showing and rounded out St. Augustine’s team putting six finishers in the top ten. The race was part of the student’s Third Semester program which challenges them in a number of mental and physical trials. The next two challenges for the Mental Toughness Crew are river kayaking and a rope challenge course!
