The times above are very, very strong for a HS boy's team. Here is what is usually viewed for a top ranking at the HSXC level:

1. head to head competition with other ranked teams

2. state meet results

3. spread, and team time

4. elite preps on the team (Footlocker finalist or state champ)

5. finally, running your best performance at the correct time (end of the season)

I'm guessing the times above are for 3 miles and not 5k. Remember, you must take into account where the team run's this type of spread....altitude? weather? other teams? fast/slow course?

In any case, this team will get a nice ranking if they can run THAT type of time spread at the state champs (on a fairly reasonable, somewhat challenging 3 mile XC course)...

Hope that helps

Mike

re: boss

in order to be the best team pretty much in the nation for high school all top five and hopefully top seven can break 15:45 at mount sac's world famous pain in the ass cross country course. accomplish that and your team will steamroll any other challengers

5. Brian Fosjord West 16:03

6. Stephen Flink Sentinel 16:04

7. Brian Thorne Flathead 16:06

8. Troy Clark Capital 16:06

9. Cee Jay Brown Big Sky 16:10

10. Casey Lofthouse Helena 16:12

11. Trevor Lewis Capital 16:17

12. Matt Parker Flathead 16:20

13. Jake Silk Great Falls 16:21

14. Dylan Beddow Bozeman 16:29

15. Nick Palmer Flathead 16:30

boss, can you tell me which one of those guys is Tray?

I'm smelling another McMinn County HS thread coming on here. The one on the previous message board was awful damn funny.
