Fayetteville Manlius only has 10 guys on the team this year?

Does anyone sees 10 guys on a team as a red flag?good programs like Wayzata, great oak, and Carmel have more than 10 guys on the team in each grade. https://ny.milesplit.com/teams/11215-fayetteville-manlius-fm/roster 5 seniors 3 juniors 1 sophomore1 freshmanwhat is happening there?So many NXN appearancesis the training getting too hard to handle?This team has enough returners to challenge for NXN berth this year but…but what will happen after this year?Will they ever make NXN again? Only 5 nonseniors this year. Only 2 guys will be back in 2024. are they gonna do something to get more people to join?Maybe more will join in the middle on a season and someone random will show up in a race and stick with it?

I don't keep up with this high school scene as closely as many of you, so I can't weigh in on the latest news.. But 10 runners doesn't seem shocking to me. It sounds like a decent amount. I know the conversation has moved on, but since that's what started the thread, I figured I'd throw this out there. I bet my school had about that many my Senior year....or would have if I had joined. Might have been 8 or 9 as it was. Seems normal from my perspective.

In 2023 a freshman girl transferred from FM to a school with a much smaller team roster

It’s very unfortunate how the previous school treated him. Jamesville-Dewitt cross country is a joke & always been a joke. They (coaches) can’t seem to develop good runners. I’ve heard of horrible stories coming out of J-D. Rumors has it that if you want to get your high school running career ruined Jamesville-Dewitt is the place to go.
Name any good runners that were developed by those coaches at J-D? What have they accomplished?

And this is the program that not a lot of people know about

re: Yes butt

Sure. Aris has been pushing the “it’s hard” line for years, but that doesn’t explain it. Parents aren’t stupid. They talk to each other. There’s a reason there are like 60-70 kids in the middle school XC program and hardly any at the high school. Sad, because a lot of those kids genuinely like to run.

Yeah… the humorless automaton affect is kinda played out.

17 FM boys in this race. The number has increased. Fewer than most teams but more than the team they faced here

Are you seriously using Fulton as a yardstick to measure the “resurgence” of FM’s program?

Allow me to comprehensively list Fulton’s notable accomplishments in XC here:
