Holmdel Park Varsity 5000 meter course

The school's best team average was accomplished by the 2016 team, above, which was, from the left, top row, Kevin Berry, Matt Hartman, Liam Hoagland and Jordan Brannan, front row, Brad D'Antuono, Anthony Russo and Matt Schaefer.  They won the Group III State Championship and then finished 2nd in the Meet of Champions, losing by 2 pts.

Fun facts: The 16:19.6 is the 3rd fastest public school average in NJ history and is a Shore Conference Public School record.  Colts Neck has had 5 under 17:00 in one race just once, in 2016.  They have had 4 under 17:00 in 2 other races, both in 2016.  They have never had more than 1 under 16:00 in one race. 

(We indented any additional times from the same year but not if they were over 17:20.0.)

Ocean County Park Varsity 5000 meter course

This course was used for the Shore Conference Champs 1999, 2001, 2004, 2006, 2008, 2010 and then every year after except 2020 (pandemic).  About 7 secs were added to the course starting in 2018.

Fun facts: The 15:33.8 is a Shore Conference Public School record.  Colts Neck has had 4 under 16:00, in one race, only once, 2016.  They have had 3 under 16:00 one other time, in 2014.

Thompson Park Varsity 5000 meter course

Under 17:10 list

The Central Jersey Champs was held here every year starting in 2006 except 2012, due to Hurricane Sandy damage.  We ran in NJ2 (Greystone) instead of CJ in 2016.  Many years we don't have to run all-out to win the meet so we run easy and conserve for the Group Champs the next week.

Fun facts: The great 2016 team ran in NJ2 at Greystone instead of Thompson Park, for the first and only time in CN history.  6 teams have had 3 under 17:00 but only one has had 5 under 17:00 (2024).  In all fairness, many times we have won and ran easy, saving our energy for the State meet the following week.
