A couple corrections, and a bit of depth:
1. Ches (14:53 CR at Holmdel (junior); 11:55 CR at VCP (junior); 2-time FL champ, etc., etc.)
2. Marty Liquori (12:23 VCP (old course), obviously, not 14;23. CR by 13 seconds. Best miler in the country. Probably the best XC runner too.)
3. Joe Rosa (14:56 CR at Holmdel (junior); 12:03 CR at VCP (junior); Nipped at the line at NXN (junior); 8:44 2-mile national champ (junior); 7:37 2800 (long story) (senior).
4. Jim Rosa (15:15 Holmdel (#3 all-time); 12:08 VCP (junior); 8:51 2-mile (junior).
5. Craig Forys (12:10 VCP, CR; 15:16 Holmdel, CR; Second at FL Nationals; 8:46 2-mile, state record.)
6. Jason DiJoseph (15:16 Holmdel, CR; 12:20 VCP; 2-time SMOC champ; Second at Kinney Nationals.)
7. Brad Hudson (12:15 VCP; Third at Kinney Nationals (though he'd then moved to Oregon as a senior.))
Honorable Mention:
1. Brendan Heffernan (15:31 Holmdel; National Champ at Kinney. '92.)
(When a national champ doesn't crack your starting lineup, chances are you've got a hell of a team.)
2. Bob Keino (2-time SMOC; 4th and 5th at FL Nats.)
3. Mo Khadraoui (2-time SMOC Champ; 15:22 Holmdel.)
4. Steve Slattery (9th and 4th at FL Nats.)
5. Mike Keogh. (8:54 2-mile in '69.)
