Who are the best teams in the country this year? Is it still Chandler and Loyola? Anybody got a top 5 for either side?
Who are the best teams in the country this year? Is it still Chandler and Loyola? Anybody got a top 5 for either side?
Top-5 boys so far would probably be...
1. DeSoto TX
2. St. Thomas Aquinas FL
3. Kingwood TX
4. Lancaster TX
5. Timberview TX
Top-5 girls so far would probably be...
1. Chandler AZ
2. American Heritage FL
3. Boyd Anderson FL
4. St. Thomas Aquinas FL
5. Long Beach Poly CA
Watchout, wat are ur main points on those teams? 4 TX boys and 3 FL girls? Best teams in the country? Not just sprint teams, overall teams. Is Nike doing a track nationals thingy this year?
CBA
Nike is not doing their track nationals this year.
Generally, the best sprint teams (especially long sprints) are going to be the best overall teams because they cover more events. And on top of that, teams with the best relays are going to have more depth than teams that can't put together good relays.
By the way, it shouldn't be a surprise that TX and FL schools are dominating these lists at this point... on top of their huge population and history in being among the strongest states in track, they are much further along in their season than states like California, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New Jersey or Illinois. Texas' state meet is next weekend, Florida's small school state meet is this weekend and big schools next weekend.
For more details on these teams (and I'll admit, I made the list rather quick so order is debatable and there might be some teams as good or better than the listed #4/5 teams):
