NCS boys all-time team times

Thanks to Jim Crowhurst and www.redwoodempirerunning.com
====================================

Here is what I put together on boys team times.

Always have to round times up to full seconds because timers these days like to show results in tenths. Adds a few seconds to what they show for team times.

This year had 4 of 8 best ever.

2017 Notes
The last two years have had slightly different courses at Hayward for the NCS Finals.
As stated below, from this year's NCS meet director, the 2017 course used is hoped to be the permanent one and he believes that the course used will allow us to keep the course records from the old course.

From 2017 NCS meet director
We will not be returning to the “old course,” as the new Hayward High School stadium configuration will not allow it.
The 2016 course was approximately 150 meters short of 3.0 miles.
This year’s course was 3.0 miles. This was verified by the management committee.
The management committee plans to include the 2017 performances on the all-time list without an asterisk. We believe this year’s course is comparable to the “old course.”
