Harvard lures Napa's Ruegg

Napa High’s senior distance running star Kurt Ruegg has announced that he will attend Harvard University beginning this fall.

Ruegg, one of the top cross country and track runners in the country, chose Harvard after visiting other Ivy League schools.

“Once I made my trip back there, it was an easy decision,” Ruegg said of his trip to the prestigious Cambridge, Mass. campus. “The Boston area is just great. I loved it.”

Ruegg had athletic scholarship opportunities, but the brilliant Napa senior chose an NCAA Division I in the Ivy League where athletic scholarships are not available.
