4th Annual - Sabre Alumni & Friends Cross Country Meet - August 1st, 2026
Benefitting the Sartell CC Team and the Rustie Froemming Memorial CC Scholarship
Register today for the 4th Annual Sabre Alumni & Friends Cross Country meet! The goals of the meet are to celebrate our great Sabre CC tradition and family, connect with old teammates and coaches, and have fun competing on the old home course!
The Alumni CC meet will serve as a fundraiser for the the Sabre CC team, including new uniforms. The meet will also benefit the Rustie Froemming Memorial CC Scholarship. Coach Froemming, who died unexpectedly in 2020, was integral to the success of the Sabre CC program and the personal/athletic success of many alumni.
