Loaded at the top but with two battles for the third team qualifier.

Where: Anchor Bay HS.

The Course: I’ve never been there, but that area is as flat as… Macomb County. They usually put together a pretty fast course, though I believe the Cleverley Invite was a bit muddy.

What to Watch For: Big battle for the third spots. Utica, Stoney Creek, and Dakota on the girls side. Stoney has come on strong over the past few weeks, helped by the reappearance of Olivia Lombardo. Utica is tough up front and Fifield/Rawley have improved over the past month (Richman had her best race in awhile at Dakota). Dakota beat Utica at MAC Division, but lost to them at Macomb County.

Romeo and Lake Orion’s boys are among the best in the state through 4 runners. For the Bulldogs, Bryce Goodsell outperformed expectations at Macomb County. Lake Orion’s 5th-7th runners have all brought it on separate days. Lake Orion has beaten Brighton, the state’s top team (albeit in a smaller field), so they’re 100% capable of great things. So look to see how these guys fare vs. the rest of the field and project that onto the following weekend.
