Buchanan boys team is super deep and young. They will be good next year but look at their frosh/soph class 1600 times Givan - 10 - 4:35 Sanders - 10 - 4:39 Jauregui - 10 - 4:40 Geyer - 9 - 4:41 Pritsky - 9 - 4:42 Benitez - 10 - 4:47 Costello - 9 - 5:04
Next year they will be good but not NXN-good (they will need to make state first and there will be so many very good CA teams this coming fall), but in 2024 they should be able to compete for an NXN spot
Buchanan has many talented freshmen and sophomores on the team that are looking to be varsity next year (some of them are already on there this year). We may see this team at nxn in the future
There is also 3 8th Graders at their middle school that have run 4:41, 4:44 and 4:50. They could be real good for at least the next 3 years.
The crazy thing is that their boys team didn’t go to state last year
----------- Trabuco Hills 326.4 Carsten Williams 41.4 Dylan Jubek 44.2 William Griggs 51.8 Ryan Stanley 72 Micah Clemons 117 Will Hadley 263.3 -----------
What Trabuco Hills returns next year Jubak - 10 - 4:21 Griggs - 11 - 4:24 Stanley - 11 - 4:27 Anderson - 11 - 4:29 Hadley - 11 - 4:29 Williams - 10 - 4:30 (but was #1 on the team sometimes last year) Forbes - 11 - 4:32 Fulford - 11 - 4:33 Clemons - 11 - 4:38 (ran a 16:03 5k at the xc state meet)
There will be many seniors that will be fighting for the top 7 spots for Trabuco Hills.
The southern section had their league finals, and that lowered the scores of some teams. As a reference, this is the merged scores from last year. If you want to make NXN, you need be around 300 or lower. ### 2022 Team Scoring### 1 Newbury Park 52 2 Great Oak 214 3 San Clemente 264 4 Granada 303 5 Oakdale 361 6 Ventura 442 7 Crescenta Valley 550 8 Crystal Springs Uplands 577 9 San Luis Obispo 579 10 St. Francis 602 11 Trabuco Hills 608 12 Whitney 650 13 Cathedral 697 14 Campolindo 705 15 Mira Costa 727 16 Arcadia 728 17 Albany 736 18 Dana Hills 765
The current projected scores look high, but that it is to be expected. If I continued to update the scores next xc season, the scores would get lower as runners improved their speed rating score. I also added a couple more teams. ### Predicated Team Scoring### 1 Ventura 223.7 2 San Clemente 291.7 3 Trabuco Hills 335.8 4 Great Oak 359.2 5 Mira Costa 505.5 6 Dana Hills 551 7 Buchanan 589.6 8 Oakdale 594.7 9 Clovis East 616.9 10 Newbury Park 632.9 11 Cathedral 751.1 12 Yosemite 761.3 13 Crystal Springs Uplands 799.7 14 Santa Barbara 844.2 15 Granada 884.9 16 Millikan 888 17 St Francis 896.1 18 Crescenta Valley 924.1 19 Matilda Torres 941.6 20 Vacaville 1008.5 21 Davis 1061.3 22 Torrey Pines 1061.7 23 Huntington Beach 1141.1 24 Loyola 1180.1 25 Beckman 1197 26 ML King 1206.7 27 Jesuit 1234.3 28 Clovis West 1318 29 Clovis 1433.1 30 Glendora 1547 I haven't done an update of the girls yet, since it seems there are a few teams which are much better than the rest, but I will after cif track finishes. I'll also do a boys update then.
Of the boys top teams, Oakdale and Newbury Park gained the most points, but there remains a pretty clear top 4.
###Team Scoring### Ventura 223.7 San Clemente 291.7 Trabuco Hills 330.8 Great Oak 355.6 Mira Costa 505.5 Oakdale 534.3 Dana Hills 549.6 Buchanan 589.6 Newbury Park 611.5 Clovis East 616.9 Cathedral 714.7
Appears that Lindsey Zimmer from Cathedral Catholic went from a 19:41 5K (not even being in the top 7) to 4:58 1600. Cathedral Catholic took 15th in the merge at CIF
Boys team update. Very little change. I think we know as much as we can from the track season, so this will be the last update.

Big gap between the #4 and #5 team here.
Great Oak’s track times are great, but we need to see how they translate to the grass
