These are awards for this school year in the Cross Country and Track Scene (including Indoor & Outdoor season together). I'll do the girls section tomorrow and an overview for next school year on both genders, obviously, things will change this summer with roster turnover amongst multiple programs.. The track section has more finalists because I included 2 seasons in one section. The finalists are in very loose order.
