2023 Ratings: Coaching Legends

Girls Adjustment: -29
Boys Adjustment: -26

As always, these writeups below will shoutout someone or a team that stood out from the race. That may not be the best runner or the winning team. Perhaps a team that surprised, a runner breaking through, or a runner contributing to a team victory. Of course, if you come to me nicely and want to brag about a fellow team/competitor/teammate, let me know, and I’ll try to give them love further down the line.

LEGENDARY PERFORMANCES

Bennett Park

Happy to see a negative number on the adjustment. Really just warms my cold, black heart.

Natalia DeMea, Chelsea

I’m taking athletic.net as the sole authority here – I believe this is the first win of her career! Around this time last year, her career took a sharp turn for the better. A year ago from today, she ran her first sub-20 and hasn’t looked back since, dropping eleven straight 19:xx performances. 48^th in Division Two as a sophomore, if races like yesterday or Spartan earlier in the fall are any indicator, she can definitely move into the top-30 come early November.

Paul Moore and his Pinckney Pirates

After placing in the top-10 at both SEC White Jamborees and announcing his commitment to run for SCAD Atlanta (NAIA school that finished 3^rd in the Appalachian AC last year), Paul ran his first invite of the year. A commendable 17:09 on this tough track on top of his low-16 efforts in the SEC and now the Pinckney roster is now fully accounted for. Look for the Pirates to move up in this week’s rankings, and then if they can bring the same great effort at Portage as they did last year, perhaps they’ll move even further.
