The Conestoga solution: Run fast. Get stuck in NY. Watch Eagles. Pillow fights, and...

It's the hair. Conestoga braved the storm on Jan 22nd and had some great performances at the New Balance Games at the Armory in New York. (A 4:03.67 4x400 and 9:39.26 4x800, which is #2 in PA, plus the best High Jump of the day). But we digress. What they really went to New York for was some team bonding. Stuck at the hotel all day Sunday, until they could head for home on Monday, they made creative use of their time. Yes, they did watch the Eagles whip the Falcons. But, well, we'll let the pix by coach Ryan Comstock tell the story.
