Teams:
1. Bowdoin - only lose McKenna but didn't look good in track w/o Abrams/Hall.
2. Williams - not as strong up front this year but still deep. Seems like every one of their guys ran to their potential last season.
3. Amherst - solid track times but a lot of question marks in XC. With Morrissey, might have the most talented top 5 in the region.
4. MIT - very solid but a notch below the top 3.
5. Brandeis - young and talented, need 3-5 runners to step up, though.
6. Trinity - even with a stud freshman, 4-5 spots look weak
7. Keene St. - very young last year but showed potential
8. Tufts
Top 35 Individuals (in order):
1. Abrams (is he healthy?)
Norte
Butcher (inconsistent in track but always good in XC)
Kelleher (anyone who runs 14:37 has to be a contender)
C. Wheeler (underrated)
Murtagh (home course advantage)
Ruzevick
Kosgei (who knows)
Christian
Condon (where was he in track?)
Krah (has the talent, should be better than last year)
Murner (solid XC rookie, even better in track)
Lakehomer (can he regain last year's early XC form?)
Sorenson (steeple time suggests he could be higher)
Samuel (the next Keene stud)
Moorhead
N. Wheeler
Ogilvie (why doesn't he run the 5k?)
Roy-Mayhew (15:00 indoors)
Watts (or some other random Williams dude)
Eubank (see Ecac's outdoors)
Welch
Morrissey (is he running?)
Hall
Levin (can he build on last year's success?)
Swain (fluke?)
Kamm
Murphy (if he trains)
Griffin (from Springfield)
Kantos (back from abroad?)
Blumstein (who else does Wesleyan have?)
Seybert
Harbus (weak in XC but Conn's course might as well be a track)
35. Dunlap
