Top 30 at Mountain Regionals as a true freshman is not average.

It's average compared to what Nico Young did and Colin was HYPED just as much.
What place did Nico take as a freshman again at NCAA CROSS CHAMPS?
That's right.....
There is a reason Smith held him back. He is not even a top 6 runner for NAU.12 -

Nico is beast. The best MD collegiate runner. Hicks is average on the track....
I doubt L&L will ever reach a point where one of them is considered the best runner in college. They showed almost no improvement from their junior year.
I think they have peaked in HS and other studs from this class will have more success in the long run. Burns and Simeon Birnbaum come to mind. Junior Daniel Simmons has the most upside.
Weston Brown and Nathan Neil have never done XC until this year and already placed high at nationals. so we can see those 2 continue to improve.
I would also add Matthew Donis. Maybe Byron Grevious.
On the girls side, watch out for Andie Aagard (first year runner, former mountain biker) and Katelyn Rupe (sophomore who splits time between tennis and XC in the fall).

Leo Young will outkick Nico to win the 2023 NCAA XC championship to become the first freshman since Ches and first American freshman since Bob Kennedy to win the title.
Probably not, but wouldn’t that be exciting.

I mean seriously, we’re talking about a 13:11 guy against a couple of high schoolers.
I don't know about that. Brosnan said Lex and Leo are in 13:20 shape right now. I don't know that Nico is in that kind of shape at the moment.
13:34. Close

Those XC champs were during covid and during indoor which had better athletes competing anyway

Why do you have to promote their videos? Don't they do that enough on their own?
