Boys Adjustment: +40
Girls Adjustment: +47
How Right/Wrong Was I? 5/6 of the top 3 teams, with the Leland Girls putting their best foot forth. 187/216 altogether on the top 3 teams (I think Jacob Tanner had 189, yeah I checked, I’m competitive *shrugs*). Anyhow, the previous four seasons, I’ve had 183, 187, 188, and 190, so this is right in line with that average. As I’ve always said, this sport would be quite boring if it were predictable. 29 separate teams rendering those numbers useless, we love to see it. And heck, even a few teams with 4 in the top 20!
BUCKLEY’S BEARS
Garret Ensor, Buckley: One season of cross country as a senior, one regional meet, one chance to bypass the 18’s and run a massive personal best. Garret’s 17:53 was way beyond anything he’s shown on a XC course and it earned him a trip down to Brooklyn.
Ariana Rodriguez, Leland: What a ride it’s been for Ariana. She joined the Leland team as a junior and commenced her career with a few efforts above 29:00. Toward the end of that season, she had gotten into the 23’s, an area where she started her senior year. A few months later, she’s still improving, all the way into the 20’s, helping spring the Comets to a drive down south.
