Agreed. Appleford would have smoked this guy on the track and cross county. Not to mentioned a few others.

Aaron’s great but someone wins NXN every year, 13:34’s are more rarified air. I’d go:

1. Colin

2. Leo

3. Nico

4. Lex

5. Aaron

I wonder what kind of shoe technology they used back in 1991, compared to now

A more interesting question would be, which states have had a guy who could make their top 7?" Betting less than 1/2.

Someone wins NXN every year, but I don't think there has ever, and probably will never, be someone other than Aaron MF Sahlman who only won 1 (one) XC race during their entire HS career, with that race being NXN. No dual meets, league meets, rounds, invites, qualifiers, no nothing. It had been 15 months since he had placed higher than 3rd in an XC race.

Lex or Aaron could go either way, but 13:34 doesn't count for quite as much in my mind when your brother and your teammate could have run faster if they'd tried to (still a national record though lol).

Is there a state whose all time team could win a dual meet against this team regularly? States that could win once in a few tries?

MI could MAYBE go 1-2 but NP would take 3-7 if not better

The boys never wore super shoes at Woodward Park . Brosnan wouldn’t let them and they still averaged 14:40’s. This Wilson guy wouldn’t of made the travel team in 2021
