Pretty impressive. I’m looking forward to seeing what they do the next couple of years.
I, too, and wondering whether this is the first boys team to make NXN without a senior

I think it’s the youngest boys team to make NXN
Yawn.

Not as young as Niwot 2023, but the Cheyenne Mountain boys ended the 2020 season ranked in the teens nationally with 5 juniors and a sophomore. There was no NXN that year and it doesn't look like they raced beyond their state meet besides a couple individuals so it's hard to say for sure but likely.

Youngest boys team to make NXN AND finish this high
Cheyenne mtn would not have made NXN in 2020 if it did happen. The Nike SouthWest region was really fast that year. Niwot beat them at state easily, Skyridge and American fork would have for sure beaten CM that year too based on running lane results. Mountain Vista also had a thriving Harrison Witt who could help Vista take the #4 spot in the SW region. While 6 jrs and a so is young, certainly not on the level of niwot 2023, who also had to fight hard for a spot in 23 going up against loaded squads like Herriman, AF, and the other UT powerhouses.
