Jesuit HS's national record setting DMR team from 1986

The photo to the left was shared by Jesuit HS coach Walt Lange and was taken a few days after the record setting effort. From left to right is Mark Mastalir (3:00.0), Paul Thomas (1:57), Eric Mastalir (4:07.8) and Dan Cahill (51). At that time, the order of the DMR was 800, 400, 1200, 1600. You can read a bit more about the record setting team in the Sacramento Bee newspaper article below. The record lasted for one season as McCullough, Tx ran 9:53.31 in 1987. Jesuit's time remains the California record and the 7th fastest US all-time.

Son of PowerBar Founder Aims for Sub-2:40 at Boston

Brian Maxwell, who was third at Boston in 1977, died at 51, leaving behind a wife, six children, and a thriving energy bar company. His son Chris continues his marathoning legacy.

Chip Castelberry Invitational photos by Michael Lucid

Major changes for 2016 NCS XC Divisions approved

You can check out the divisions for the fall season at the link below which was approved a few days ago. As it stands now, there will be 8 potential teams in Division I, 19 teams in Division 2, 29 teams in Division III, 29 teams in Division IV and 66 teams in Division V. Keep in mind that not all schools field cross country teams and the number of teams in Division V has been fairly high for as far back as I can remember. 

The major change is that the break point for each division now resembles more closely with the Southern Section and San Diego Sections. The result of the change leaves Division I with only 8 teams and makes the other four divisions much more competitive at the section level. Whether NCS teams will field stronger teams in those divisions will be determined in the next few seasons. 

If you have any thoughts on the new divisions, feel free to comment in the section below.
