    Obviously Lex/Leo/Aaron did it already.

    Doshi can do it. He ran a 9:02.

    Same with Martinez if he’s healthy. His PR is 9:10.

    Aaron Cantu can do that as well. His PR is a 9:21. I think a sub-9 is a great way for a guy like him to finish off his high school career.
    It’s possible to go from a 9:21 to a sub-9 in a year. Doshi went from a 9:35 to a 9:02 in a year.

    Porter (their 7th returner) has a 9:52 PR. He’d have to drop almost a minute off of that. Might be a tall task. Even if he has a year to do that.

    So at this point I would predict 6 under 9 minutes.

    Actually, Cantu ran a 9:19 in spring 2021. So he was actually faster than Doshi and Martinez at that time. I think he will be at their level this fall if healthy.

    If Leo Young was not sick at Arcadia...would've been the first team in history to have 5 sub 9'ers in the same race and season. And to think Doshi ran 9:02 there as well. They of course set the record in 2021 when they had 4 guys under 9. But didn't Cantu run 9:20 as a freshman and has pretty much stalled since then? I'm rooting for the kid and the whole team. This is some historical stuff.

    Cantu ran a 9:19 as a soph.

    He didn’t run so well last XC season because I read somewhere that he had a surgery or something. Him catching back up to Doshi and Martinez has been a work in progress.

    I think they he, Doshi, Martinez, and Seymour will be able to race as a pack in XC if they are all healthy.

    Another thing is, in this group of the magnificent 7, Doshi will be the only nonsenior, so Newbury Park will have lots of rebuilding to do after the rest of the guys are gone.

    I think it will be 7 if Martinez does track. Shetty will probably run in the 9:20s

    They have a shot at three 8:30s, counting each of them, regardless of whether they are actually running for NP or unattached and being coached by Brosnan or Smith as unattached. Maybe Aaron will start running in Flagstaff early to get ready for xc and set some incredible records on the track. But with Lex at 7:57 last year, Leo comparable, and Aaron with 8:01 and NXN record in xc, you have to think they can do it. As for the other guys, Seymour and Doshi should run sub-9 to make five. Cantu might make six. I don't know that Martinez is still running. Their best frosh should get within range to have a shot at it as a soph. I'll predict six sub 9, three sub-8:30.

    Martinez told me he really misses running. He is hoping for a comeback this season.
