Upon first look at the graphic, many may wonder, “where are his State/Regional results?”
And you’d be right to wonder, but here’s the answer – Colin unfortunately received a stress fracture that ended his sophomore cross campaign
Judging by his early ratings, he was on the path to running low 16’s on the right day on the right course
And taking note of his track season, it seems that he didn’t have much of a training loss from an incomplete fall
He showed mid-distance strength (multiple sub-4:30’s) and longer distance endurance (multiple sub-9:45’s)
The MIXCSR hometown favorite, but her inclusion isn’t of any bias, as she’s here on the pure strength of her last few XC races
Her early season consisted mainly of duals and solid times (a few sub-19’s, victories over Haupt, Hastie)
But her ascent began in earnest with an 18:19 at Regionals, followed by a 12th place finish at MIS, then a massive PR at the Meet of Champions
She’s not blessed with the greatest speed in the world, but she’s a grinder, and was able to summon a 5:19/11:24 in track despite a 400m PR of “only” 66.
