It was the last Friday before Thanksgiving, Nov. 20, 2015 to be exact. For some it was just another day closer to Turkey Day, but for the Seton Hall baseball team it was the day they ran “The Rock.”
“Let’s go men, let’s go,” head coach Rob Sheppard said to his team as he was ushering his players out of the Richie Regan Athletic Center. It was 54 degrees out and partly sunny that morning, but the weather did not matter. The team was going to run that day rain or shine.
The eight-mile uphill run has been a part of the program for over 30 years.
