BOYS Division V Team Rankings (Top 4 Teams Qualify to State)
San Francisco University has established themselves as the top Division V team in the state over the past month, which included a 2nd place performance at Mt SAC Invitational’s Division 3-4-5 Team Sweepstakes race. Stuart Hall displayed its strength and depth at the BCL West Championships and are back at the number 2 spot. Healdsburg dominated at the NBL Redwood Championships and are primed to fight for a spot to state. College Prep and Head-Royce will clash at the BCL East Championships this week but it looks like College Prep is the stronger squad. The Bay School has dropped a spot as they lost their number 1 runner, Leor Hersh. He went down hard at the start of BCL West Finals, breaking his arm in the fall. The Breakers will now have to pull together to make up for the loss. Individually, Ben Friedland has been on a tear and will look to repeat as NCS individual champion. Kainoa Newton and Samuel Ruiz have moved up several spots in the individual rankings.

Branson will compete in its league finals this week but also have a terrific trio and still need their number 4 & 5 runners to improve. College Prep remains at the same spot and will be competing in the BCL East finals this week along with Head-Royce. Sonoma Academy competed in the CMC Championships and completely dominated their competition. Freshman Annie Leyba has made significant improvements, further strengthening the team alongside the earlier addition of Josie Hill this season. Individually, Ella Mogannam is back at the number 1 spot after her record breaking performance. She continued her undefeated season as she clocked 16:47 for 5k at the BCL West Championships. It is still a toss up between her and Farah Allen, who runs at the MCAL Championships this week.
