If they don’t make it this year, maybe they will make it next year. Only 2 guys from this group above will be graduating.
They also have a 17:11 incoming sophomore and some solid freshmen coming in.

Watch out for Wando from SC. Everyone is sleeping on them. They went 1-2 in the 3200 at the state meet and both of those guys are back.
They return 9:03, 9:24, a 9:51 transfer from NJ, a 10:05/4:36, and a 10:16/4:35.Actually that NJ transfer ran a 4:23 1600 and only one 3200 race in outdoors. A 9:43 in May.

Marietta from GA is a team to watch.

The disrespect to wando is insane. Of any other team went 1-2 in the 3200 and returned both people would be foaming at the mouth putting them at the top of rankings.

Tullyrunners doesn’t take track results into account much. I don’t think Meylan knew about that NJ transfer either

Huntsville always seems to put together a really good team. I think they will be down this year, but in 2024 they should be able to qualify for NXN. They got a really good freshman/sophomore class this year.
I think I will actually change the picks for the top 5.

5. Brentwood TNMcCallie TN returns 5 guys under 16:18 including 3 4:18/9:25 guys. Almost none of those guys PRed at RunningLane.
University High probably won’t be top 5. They are losing their top 2 including their stud Larry Josh Edwards.

The funny thing about Brentwood is that their top guy’s first name is Brody.
Pretty similar first name to their top guy in 2015-2017.Except the top guy of those years has an E in his first name but this year’s top guy does not.

If you look at the last 3-4 years they always have really good freshmen and sophomores that then don't make the same improvements they should. Also they haven't had much success post high school.

Yeah in 2019 Huntsville was expected to at least be close to qualifying for NXN (maybe 3rd at NXR?) but instead they moved down from 7th to only 12th in a year at NXR.
In 2020 they seemed to have a really good season though. 7th at running lane.

James Clemens looks promising for 2023 though. Their top 7 at state had 1 senior, 1 freshman, and 5 sophs.

Chapman's good, but he's no Hasty.

Dacula high school. Dacula, Georgia. They return:
Boys:
10:35
10:51
11:39
11:51
12:06
12:12
12:19
They should be pretty tightly packed runners 3-7. This will be huge in the big meets.

Are these 3200 track times?
There are a whole ton of teams in the Southeast region that return much better 3200 times.
And Dacula only got 14th at 6A state

These are not good boys times in a 3200. The girls NXN teams have a better top 5 than Dacula HS.

The guy that posted this is probably a guy on the Dacula team, alum, a parent of a kid on that team, or has a friend on that team.

Actually, Farragut is gonna give McCallie a run for the second NXR bid
Farragut returns better XC times but McCallie returns better track times.
McCallie returns:
3 guys who ran a 4:18/9:25 last spring
-A 16:15 guy who didn’t do track
-A 16:18 guy who was an 800 runner mostly.- A 4:38 guy
- A 4:39 guy who was mostly an 800 runner.
Farragut had no one under 4:25
00 -
If Sean Brosnan were to evaluate McCallie’s and Farragut’s track times, he would likely say that no one from Farragut was fast for a high schooler, but McCallie did have 3 runners who were fast.
