Bowdoin lost a couple of good ones but are re-loading again. They'll be top 3 or better in this region.

Bates ftw anyone?
Hanan, Grayboys, Wortham, Martin is a pretty solid top 4.
I agree that Bates seems to be the team to beat. Williams can never be counted out though.
I think individuals to look watch:
Horowitz (Bowdoin)
Rand (Tufts)
LeDuc (Conn)
Tully (Bates)
Harper (MIT)
I see them as the best 5, not sure of the order, probably coby at the top though
pretty sure harper was a senior in cross country, at least that's how he's listed.
DirectAthletics lists him as a Junior (for track at least).
that 30:07 is pretty legit
I meant on the MIT website's results from regionals. There he is listed as a senior. But yeah, I think he has track eligibility.
Can someone please provide a link to the official announcement about the re-structuring of the NCAA Regions for Div III?
Recruiting classes from new england milesplit sites and the tracktalk thread, if you are too lazy to look it up.

Thoughts: injuries are huge. Everyone is training.
I have no doubt some other schools got strong recruits, should be an interesting fall as many of the top guy's are getting that base in this summer.
