Niwot > Newbury Park?

Plus add Ritzenhein. Where was Culpepper? DNS in mile or 32.

Newbury had 10 guys break 9 in a year span and 3 different cross country national champions. It will never happen again. Al

Name the 10

It just isn’t even close. They went 1-2-3-6 at XC nationals. They ran 3:56/4:00/4:00/4:01

And for your 3200 comparison
8:33
8:35
8:39
and that is just the top 3. It isn’t even worth outlining more reasons why this is a stupid thread.

In 2022 there were 4 which is the year NP had the most

I only see that 8 guys in Newbury Park history broke it

lol, some really solid information being provided in this thread.

In 2022, NP went:

8:34 Colin

8:35 Lex

8:48 Aaron

8:52 Appleford

Also Leo ran 8:39 a few weeks earlier. Doshi ran 9:02 at the same meet.

Lexi Young and Colin Sahlman, who could have run much faster, were both in the mid-8:30s at Arcadia and Aaron ran 8:02 which converts to sub-8:40. Leo ran 3:41 and ran stride for stride with Lexi during XC their Junior year, but became sick the next track season. And, oh by the way, one of the GOAT 5/10 runners was a few years anhead and didn’t run with those guys.

Niwot has a great team, but they’re not nearly as good as NB was and there will never be a team that approaches the level of NP.

Weren’t the Sahlmanns and Young actually from different areas / public school districts, and did some sort of transfer / school of choice thing?

So really, NP’s greatness was really the Youngs and Sahlmans. They had some other really good runners, but not on their level.

Yeah but newbury park was basically just as close, niwot does the same thing if not worse

It seems to be more than a coincidence that the Culpepper and Ritzenhein families live there.

Nico Young started at Camarillo High School before transferring up the hill to NPHS.

A) 7 is not 10

B) close is not sub 9

C) it wasn’t in a 1 year span

D) listing a time in another event isn’t relevant

Crater, Niwot and Herriman are all more impressive to me because they did it for a longer period of time with less dependency on sets of brothers.

NP was still impressive if for no other reason to have 2 sets of bothers that good. The top 5 times were those 2 families. After them, it looks a lot more ordinary.

Seymour ran a 9:00 2 mile at NBNI senior year
