Leah Stephens is amazing, but she is privately coached(doesn’t train with the high school much), does 55-60+ mile weeks so she basically ahead training at a collegiate level. I’m interested to watch her progression at florida state knowing what she is already doing.
Also Juliette Whittaker is the best female prospect from Maryland hands down. Not only did she break 2 in Hs in the 8, she qualified for footlocker in XC soph, junior and senior year. Highest finish was 10th!! Her range is incredible. I would love to see her mix it up in xc for stanford next year but it’s a hard case to make when she is already national class in the 800 at 18 yrs old.
