Again, great work Ozzie. I wish I had the drive and the talent to write all this. I can do the research, but putting it all together in a marvelous write up are just not in my hands.

DLS with 5 in the top 10 potentially...yeah. That's gonna be pretty tough to beat. The rest pretty much follows what I gleaned from looking at XC and track too.

As for my team (Berkeley): "For whatever reason, for a school with as many students as they have, not many people come out for cross country, train, and get good."

That reason has yet to be discovered. We would love to find it. Your analysis was right on the money for us. We'll see where the season takes us. Good luck. Just a few more weeks till the season officially starts!

Not a bad writing job...for a math teacher.

Maybe, but my fonts and formatting probably wouldn't even make the grade in your PE class would they?

Lots of great returners in NCS - the most I have ever seen. Two raw talents to watch are Jason Intravia - his track season was a nice breakout but he ran some relay splits that were even more impressive than the times listed for open evens, and Connon McKinnon, who has mad speed and if he can put it together for three miles, could do what SRV's Kevin Griffen did 4 year back and claim an NCS podium spot.

It will all be fun to watch.

Had no idea two of the most accomplished runners in NCS D1 were such "raw talents to watch." Both are seniors who have run for at least 2 years for their teams, I believe.

Also doing some further research:

Matt Doerner of Irvington is going to be a senior according to his athletic.net page. It has his 2012 track season as a 10th grader.

Dougherty Valley is getting a freshman who ran 4:17 in the 1500.
