We are planning an unprecedented amount of on-site coverage for this fall's cross country season. Doing this comes at no small expense. So as we step up our coverage, we are looking to you all to step up your support by way of subscriptions. If you are not a subscriber or are currently sharing (aka stealing) a subscription by using someone else's account, please subscribe today so that we can go forward with these plans--and perhaps add more.
The schedule below is tentative and is subject to change. We will add or cut back based on budget--your subscriptions and some sponsorships we're working on. In some cases, budget allowing, we are looking for more journalists to our freelance team (email me with resume and work samples if interested) to fill in gaps in the state.
If you are just a good person and want to help out the site by volunteering your services and submitting photos, videos, or articles then that would also be much appreciated to help supplement our team (email me). We also have for-credit internships available for college students or recent grads looking to build a resume (see below).

Meet the Regular Coverage Team
Interns Wanted
College students: Want to help us add to our coverage of this great sport? Want to get credit and build your resume at the same time? Intern with us!
We are mainly looking for folks who can work out of our office here in Orlando; however, some colleges (such as UNF) have said they will accept telecommuting internships as well. So if you want to help us fill in the gaps and cover more kids in your area... please apply! We have already been approved by UCF, Rollins College, and Florida Southern College as a for-credit internship... and will be happy to work with other colleges to get approval as well.
