Gosh, looking back at the results... what has happened to the Woodlands?
End of a dynasty ever since the father retired?
Yeah last year The Woodlands took 5th in 6A with a young team. They took 14th this weekend but you never know what happened to them (were they sick? Injured? Peaked too early?). They were doing well earlier in the season.
But they are young again so next year they’ll have another shot at placing high
I could do a deep dive but everyone know the Bon whatever course is flat and fast and maybe a wee bit short or has no tangent possibilities. Why is this an issue? Nobody is taking away from Southlake's dominance yesterday.
You took away from Caden and Kai's District performance among others on the Southlake course, now you were proved way wrong. Just admit it, facts, nothing personal.
I didn't take anything away from either. They probably weren't cranking full on at district in their season opener.
That being said, the team average was way slower at state. I don't know why you're fighting this. Weather was better at state than district and the state terrain wasnt enough to dictate the large increase alone. Why is this important, though?
District average 15:23 state average 14:52. 31 seconds. Or about .1 miles. It's probably a flat mid-line measured course. Again, wgaf?

It's important because a lot of people are invested in their fake PRs, even if they can't replicate it again on a legit course.
I am big enough to admit when I am wrong. Vandergrift ran a great race. Had the day they needed while others struggled with their 4-5 runners. Hats off to them.
It was also good for Kai McC to finish top-5 over Esparza and Hummel. (5,6,7,12,17 for Austin area was good).
The 5A race was huge for AISD who had not had a XC champion is almost 40 years and got two Friday with Cragnolino (LASA) and Huntress (Anderson).
The top runners in 5/6A ran fast. Perfect weather and lots of great racing. Will be interesting who can keep it going at NXR.

My kid ran 20 seconds faster this year than last. Weather was perfect for 6A. Girls NXR will be a tough race. Real curious how that top 5 play out.

Austin Vandegrift stole their thunder lol
In the past it was Southlake Carroll / The Woodlands being dominant almost every year, now Southlake Carroll / Austin Vandegrift are the top 2 teams year after year
