this looks about right, I think Miltons number 2 Nick Yanek will be ahead of peter though

Are there any other good individuals choosing Nike over footlocker?

I agree with this. Southeast is probably the deepest it’s ever been at the front.

Coleman Mitchell will be doing nxn, idk how he's doing this year but I met him years ago and he's always been pretty good and one of the best runners

Milesplit NC has the performance list up

There are some interesting things about Loudoun Valley, Milton, and Green Hope this year.

-For all these teams, the 1-3 runners from last year are back. Dru Milton, who was on the back end of the varsity 7 last year for Milton High, really stepped up and is now able to beat last year’s 3rd runner for Milton High. Loudoun Valley and Green Hope, in fact, have their 1-6 runners from last year back.

-All 3 of these teams have at least one transfer. Connor Wells and Sam Affolder are transfers who are in LV’s top 5. Nick Yanek is a transfer who is now the #2 runner for Milton. Luke Bonneville is also a transfer who is in Milton’s top 7. And they also have a freshman in the top 7 this year. Ares Epps is a transfer who is now the #3 runner for Green Hope.

All this makes these 3 teams really strong and helps SE be one of the strongest regions in the USA this year.

Loudoun Valley only has 2 seniors in top 7 so they are gonna be really strong again next year. However, Almost all of the top 7 at Green Hope and Milton are seniors.

2k splits for Championship boys are posted here:

Complete results won’t be posted until the end of the awards. Bulldog XC Club was in 2nd (in front of Green Hope (3rd) and Milton (4th)) at the 2k. St Xavier was in 7th and Brentwood was in 9th.

When are they doing awards? After nightfall? No results for anything... bs

Guess the sob story on MileSplit didn’t give them the lift they wanted. Good for Bolles.

All results are here now.

Milton is no longer eligible to be in the mix for an At Large bid. Will be interesting to see if at least Green Hope gets it.

Does anyone have a list of the Top 10 boys at FLS? Results have not been posted. I'm trying to find out if any VA boys made the cut.

Both Green Hope and St. Xavier beat Bolles by a lot in the Great American meet. I think Green Hope has a good shot at the At large bid. St. Xavier could even has a chance too.

Traditionally, the SE get no love when the at-large teams are chosen. Based on the trend, this will continue, so Green Hope athletes may be watching from afar on their computers.

It’s a shame Milton’s 3-5 looked a little burnt out.

Green Hope has been nationally ranked all year and has not shied away from competition. They are the strongest 3rd placer ever from the region. I think they deserve it over South, Southwest, Midwest, Heartland, and Northwest teams, and probably over Northeast also. CA is going to hurt them and possibly NY.

Never mind. It won’t be NY.

I'd guess

New York (1)

Southeast (1)

California (2)

with the Midwest & Southwest third placers being first & second non-invitees.

But I'm never right...
