Coronado top 7 season bests (5k)
Horton - 15:10 - 9
Campos - 15:21 - 10
Potts - 15:50 - 11
Slater - 16:20 - 11
Oliver - 16:25 - 9
Davidson - 16:36 - 11
Steiner-Smith - 16:39 - 12
As you can see here, 6 of these guys are coming back next year. And this doesn’t include Roth, who moved out of the Coronado area according to another thread.
They also have another freshman with a 17:01 PR.
so 3 solid freshmen on the team

The Oliver with a SB of 16:25 is not Oliver Horton. It’s Braxton Oliver.

It did not. Though, what are the thoughts with what I hear the Niwot we be 5A next?

I think Culpepper will be fighting for 1st, but the boys team is 3rd overall. I think the girls just showed they will but the top finisher and team in 5A next year as well.

The boys team just won 2023 state with the power merge by a large margin. They had the 2nd fastest team average of all time and they do not lose anyone. They will be the favorites for the team race.

The 2023 Colorado State Cross Country PowerMerge

Bobby Reyes

Check out the 2023 Colorado State Cross Country PowerMerge!

Link:co.milesplit.com/articles/341088/the-2...

"For the boys Niwot ran away with this PowerMerge just like they ran away the 4A state title.

They averaged 15:55, and had a 1-5 split of 46-seconds. Their performance made them the second-fastest squad ever in Colorado State meet history (behind the 2021 Cheyenne Mountain squad who averaged 15:47.)

In this PowerMerge Niwot "tallied" 121 points, which took the cake by 105-points.
Rock Canyon took second here with 226 points, and had a 1-5 average of 16:10, while Mountain Vista was a close third - like they were in the 5A state championships, "tallying" 256 points, and averaging 16:12.48.

Add that 3A state champions - The Classical Academy were a very, very close fourth here, "tallying" 266, and averaging 16:12.62."

re: Colorado Runner1

Valor Christian is the only team who has a possibility to take them down (<5%), but it won’t be happening based on their very subpar results this season. Seems like their girls team and freshman have absolutely fallen apart since their old coach left, and boys will fall apart after class of 25 leaves. Niwot is loaded for the next 3 years at least, and probably will continue to win 5A state titles for the next three years.

Hopefully Valor Christian makes NXN next year because it will be their last chance to ever do anything special, since their team is mostly seniors.

I don’t see them beating Niwot or Herriman next year, but they do have a chance to get third at NXR behind those two teams and get an at-large

Valor Christian isn’t better than Niwot this year, and Niwot loses no one while Valor Christian loses their #1 (Eike).

Done with what? Not making NXN? Correct answer is yes.

More like 0%.

Valor Christian has been getting destroyed repeatedly by Niwot, and Valor loses Eike (their #1 guy!), while Niwot loses no one.

Also saw in another thread that Valor Christian’s new coach is gone now. Things are really falling apart for this team. Next year this team will be “all seniors” so this will be their last chance to do anything

Obviously no one is beating Niwot in Colorado.

The only team in the country I can see beating Niwot is Herriman.

Seems like the “old coach” is still bitter and can’t move on. Aren’t you happy at chap? Tryin to get your old job back? Been recruiting MS girls lately?
