Boys XC Team Rankings
RANK | TEAM | LAST RESULT | COMMENTS |
---|---|---|---|
1 0 | Dominated the 5A scene with a record-low 22 points and swept top 4 spots; top 5 averaged 16:12 | ||
2 3 | Surprised everyone (well, me at least) and won a very interesting and close 6A team race, by being the only 6A team to put 3 in the medals (8-9-11) AND one in the top-30 (26th) | ||
3 0 | Had a decent pack behind Skinner in 4th and three more in the top 30 - but not enough to overcome Olathe North (12 points behind) | ||
4 0 | Was close to Olathe North (and ahead of Olathe East) through three runners, by going 12-13-15, but #4 and #5 were a bit too far back and they placed 10 points behind Olathe East | ||
5 2 | Had four in the top 26 and two in the top ten to outscore Bishop Carroll for 5A runner-up; only 5A team besides Aquinas with top 5 average of under 17:00 (16:54) | ||
6 3 | Missed out on a third-consecutive podium finish by only six points; however, had two medalists (2-19) as well as another top 25 to propel them up near the top | ||
7 5 | Not the best day for SMN at the State meet, though the Akalus' 1st and 7th place finishes kept them close; ended five points behind Manhattan, and they still improved upon their 2014 finish by 4 spots | ||
8 0 | Closed out the top half of the 6A field and was "only" 39 points behind O. North (the champ) and 17 behind the last podium spot | ||
9 3 | Like BVSW, had 4 in the top 26 of the 5A meet, but their top two were well behind BVSW's and they had to settle for 3rd | ||
10 0 | Yet another 5A team with 4 in the top 30; they also had an impressive 27-second 1-5 spread, but top runner was only 18th | ||
11 8 | Had their best race of the year to propel them back to near where they were ranked pre-season. Had four top 30 and beat both BC and MV through 4, but #5 was too far back | ||
12 1 | Finished well behind the front six but did have two medalists in Wiederholt and Donahue (10-17) | ||
13 1 | Took the 4A race rather easily with 5 in the top 30 and a 38 second 1-5 spread and 17:05 1-5 average | ||
14 1 | Not quite strong enough to take a podium or top-5 finish; but did have two medalists (12th/16th) | ||
15 1 | Snagged two medals (6 and 20) and another top-30 for a solid top three | ||
16 N/R | Had one of their best races of the year and was able to end in the rankings; had two medalists (5 and 18) | ||
17 5 | Not the best day by Dodge City, and it is tough when a number of other teams have a good day; still had a 17:23 1-5 avg and 49 second spread, just too far back to have an effect in the 6A race | ||
18 N/R | After nearly defeating Baldwin at regionals, followed it up with a solid runner-up finish at the 4A meet, though they only had two medalists (9th and 11th) | ||
19 5 | Solid race after getting defeated by Leavenworth at regionals; had an 11th-place medalist | ||
20 3 | Did probably about what they could with all of the other top 6A teams present; top 5 averaged 17:29 and had a 39 second spread | ||
21 6 | Wasn't able to qualify out of the loaded Olathe North regional (qualifying teams took 1st, 2nd, and 7th at 6A State); solid pack was too far back to qualify | ||
22 N/R | Last at State doesn't look very good, and though they didn't have their best day, they did take a medal home (Anima - 14th) | ||
23 1 | Missed qualifying for the 6A meet by only one point to Wichita North | ||
24 3 | Also a "victim" to the deep Olathe North regional, where they had an impressive 17 second spread and 16:59 avg for the top 5 | ||
25 N/R | Put two in the top-30 at the 5A meet (Flores 9th) but not able to repeat their defeat of Seaman at regionals |
