Bob Firman Preview

how fit is landon heemyer now compared to last season?

it looks like Herriman (who was originally coming to firman) is changing their schedule to go up against American Fork again TwiKnight Invitational

Herriman varsity is goingz to Bob Firman. JV is going to Twiknight.

Heemeyer got injured after his first race, (super hilly course and bad footing.) On the Idaho thread someone said he rolled his ankle.

He hasn't raced since that meet, but based off his track times, the fact that he's better at XC, and people saying he's pretty healthy on other threads, I think he might not be as fit as last year, but probably in the same ballpark.

Shouldn't get any worse than 8-10th barring his injury flaring up or him being sick.

I really hope there is someone really fast in this race that will try to beat Noonan and take him through a blistering 14:50 eagle park pace, so that Noonan can brake 14:40 on this course and wreck another tyrone gorze course record. I wish Daniel Simmons was here, too bad Landon isn't in top form

Teams for boys:
Herriman ~40
Seattle Prep/Rocky (good Heemeyer) ~100
Other Seattle Prep/Rocky (poor Heemeyer ~115
Boise Senior/Dana Hills ~150
Other Boise Senior/Dana Hills ~180
Trabuco Hills ~200
Idaho Falls (healthy Luke Athay)/Star Valley/Corner Canyon ~250
Other two teams from above: ~270 and ~290

Scores are too small. Here is my guess.

Herriman 55

Next 5 are close around 200 or so.

Boise 185

Trabuco 195

Dana Hills 205

Seattle Prep 220

Rocky 220

Orem / Idaho Falls / Star Valley each around 250-260.

who will be the top 5 Idaho teams for each gender? Top 10?

I think it will go Boise, Rocky, Centennial, BK, Idaho Falls, Timberline, Mountain View for the boys.
Boise, Rocky, Thunder Ridge, Preston, Timberline, Twin Falls, Owyhee, Mountain View for the girls.

Trabuco Hills early season ranking assumed that arguably their #1 runner Carsten Williams is running, but he hasn't run this year and isn't in the Bob Firman entries listed on athletic.net. The entries has the same team that finished 11th at Woodbridge (probably 10th, there was a scoring error). I would expect Dana Hills to finish ahead of them, as they did at Woodbridge.

seems very biased you are underestimating trabuco hills and dana hills

getting 8th and 11th at sweepstakes is no joke these are strong teams, the question is whether or not they can convert that effort to a course like eagle park. however i won't underestimate rocky mountain and boise they could be far better but I doubt until proven wrong

my money is on either trabuco or rocky mountain are winning this - trabuco is pretty pissed off about their woodbridge results so I think they might perform better here just my guess. my prediction on the winning team times

Trabuco Times

15:35
15:45
16:05
16:15
16:20

OK so Herriman is the #1 team in the nation, and the odds of any team beating them are at best slim.

Not to say one of those teams won't upset, but to say that your money is on it is pretty ridiculous IMO.

Herriman puts their #8 and #9 at 16:05 and 16:10.

I change my mind, I think Rocky Mountain will get second behind Herriman and there should be a 30 point gap to Trabuco Hills for 3rd. I meant my money was on them for getting second.

So the top 2 Herriman JV guys were Marks and Wood, so they put junior Manwaring on varsity since he ran faster than Wood at Woodbridge.
Now Herriman has 4 juniors on varsity.
Next year looks great for them too

is the course usually this dusty? do you think it effects performance results?
