<p>I was wondering how is the AFA cross country team. I also want to know that if i do get in to the academy can i try out for the cross country and track team??</p>
<p>If you are on the CC team or track team can you please tell me how i stand??
I know I need to be way faster to get a scholarship , but im wondering how i stand if i try out?</p>
<p>My mile time is 4:55, and my 3 mile time is 17:00 flat. and i still have one year left and am expecting to get down into the low 4:40s and the low 16:00s?</p>
<p>Look at the kind of times that the current runners on the team ran in high school, that should give you a good idea of what they are looking for.</p>
<p>Yes Dolphin. That's why I didn't understand your (Almost_Nick's)question about a "scholarship." Asking about one w/ respect to a service academy is like asking: "Are you married or do you live in the country?" it just didn';t make sense to me.</p>
<p>If the AF wants you for a team, they don't give you a "scholarship," since it's already free of (monetary) charge...they just help you get in. If you get in regardless of sports, it's still "free." (chuckle....)</p>
<p>As for trying out for the team, yes...you can. Not sure what the standards are, but people do it.</p>
<p>AS a freshman, there's a chance you may get bumped into an intramural that was not your choice if the upperclassmen want everything else. Depends on your squadron. Last semester I was put in rugby which was definitely not what I wanted...but this semester I got softball, my first choice...so it depends.</p>
