They definitely were in 2021. This year, they had the strongest #7 at NXN.
Shetty’s best is 15:18 for 3 miles.
However, NP brings back 7 guys with sub 15:54 PBs. In addition, they have 3 more with sub 16:20 PB plus a bunch of 17:XX (Shetty’s best last year was 17:12) and young Cantu who should join the team next year.
15:18 may not be fast enough to make the team next year. They will be deep (deepest in the country?) but will obviously be missing the low sticks.

According to this thread (post 51), Cantu lives almost an hour away from NP. Isn’t this crazy? I feel like at some point things will make sense.

Newbury Park new recruit rumors

Coach K of XC06/25/2022 11:09am EDT1 year ago

Anyone have insider info on the Newbury Park transfers this year? They always seem to find the missing piece(s) to complete their teams. Especially on the girl’s side where they seem to find a senior transfer to rescue...

Thread:www.letsrun.com/forum/flat_read.php?th...

I read in another thread that West Ranch is another option for the younger Cantu (post 66 here). They have some freshmen already on varsity this year and somehow beat NP at the CIF merge in 2018

re: greatnessatnewbury

So at the state meet, Shetty ran slower than everyone from Granada, San Clemente, and Great Oak.
At NXN, he beat:
The 7th Great Oak guy
The 7th San Clemente guy
The 5th Granada guy.
He also almost beat the 4th Granada guy.

Can we say improvement?
And peaking?

Getting Mason fully recovered from his bus accident will certainly help, but they'll need a couple more guys to develop if they want to challenge for NXN

Their #5 hasn’t run XC until this year. He did run a sub-5 in track though. He played football before then. The team told him to come out because they needed a fifth runner after finding out that Mason got injured.

Next year they return 3 guys who scored and M Olivera. That’s 4 studs. We can expect that current #5 guy and M Olivera to improve next year. I’m sure they will find a fifth runner from somewhere again

Herriman’s #3 guy at NXN couldn’t break 19:32 In the 5K last year. NXN in the only time he broke 16.

Herriman’s 5-7 guys were running in the 18s last year.

I sure hope that Soles is careful with those kids

Harder than this year apparently. It’s actually gonna have more depth than this year (and a better jv team). But not as frontloaded.
Doshi and Shetty are back.
Schohn/Dickran/Bernardino/Sloan Brothers/Guevara were on the same level as Shetty at the beginning of the season. So the seventh man next year will be better than Shetty is this year.
Add in Doshi and Shetty, and that in itself is more than 7 studs already.
The younger Cantu will add even more depth if he joins.
Don’t forget Nathan “4:26o/9:52i” Porter who many thought would be the #2 junior this year but he missed many races. He just has to hit more PRs in track to get himself into position to make varsity XC.

Top 2 sophs are Jack “4:39o” Watson and Noah Ingersoll (who I don’t think does track but other sports). I don’t think they are too much of threats for a varsity spot next year (based on the season they had) but they will still have senior year to make it

re: trundzer

Interestingly enough, Newbury Park would still win the New York region next year.

Newbury’s top 2 nonseniors did better than Corning and St Anthony’s top 2 nonseniors. And there were almost no seniors on Newbury Park’s JV

Before you think that NP’s #7 will be better than Shetty is this year, you must keep in mind that he broke away from everyone on JV and has been making good progress on closing the gap on Cantu and Doshi.

The 15:18 he ran was on the Temecula twilight. Is that a fast course?

Can Shetty catch up to Doshi by next fall? If so, Doshi will have a training partner. If not, Doshi will have to train on his own unless a transfer comes in

We’ll never again see a team with not one, but two sets of brothers who are super elite- all competing at the same time. To boot, one set of brothers has twins involved! Five all-world teammates with just two last names, four of which are within a year of each other.
An absolutely incredible set of circumstances that, in addition to excellent coaching and a few other factors, produced one of the greatest teams we’ve ever seen.
Really fun to watch.

Next year, Great Oak will likely have 2 pairs of brothers on varsity.

2 Rodriguez brothers (c/o 2024) and 2 Brown brothers (Jacob and Westin, class of 2025)

There will be 5, but only 5 spots on varsity after class of 2023 graduates.

People on the team will see lots of openings but know that they will need to put in a lot of work to get one of those spots. So they will work hard to try to get one of those spots.

re: greatnessatnewbury

Great Oak is finished too after losing Soles and the 5 varsity seniors on the boys side. Their girls team is down already, even with the many seniors they have

Herriman (new team coached by Soles) is pretty much the new Greak Oak. Expect them to be fighting for the national title or at least podium every year.

They have a really good junior and sophomore class. They have some really good 8th graders too

Oakdale will have trouble even winning the D3 state meet next year, especially if they don’t find a fifth runner.
Dana Hills returns their whole team except their #5 and #7, and also a 4:43 guy who wasn’t on that varsity squad.
They return these top 5 1600 times:
4:17, 4:17, 4:42, 4:43, and 4:46.
That 4:46 guy was #2 on the Dana Hills team last year.

Woodruff really stepped up from last fall by running a 4:17

Seriously doubt this. The best returning NP girl runs 16:24, which would likely not even be in the top-10 on the guys team. It's inconceivable that NP could field a girls team that could beat the boys team in a dual meet. This is the worst prediction anyone has ever made on this site.

I think he meant the girls would place better relatively.

Add in sophomore transfer Braden Herrera from Buena. He has a 16:25 5k PR and a sub-10 3200 PR.

He will be running in the Meet of Champions for Newbury Park this spring.
