Ehrenburg, Olivero, and Bouhassoun will be in the seeded race. Downs will be with Robison in Division 2. Katzman will race in Division I.<br /><br />Thanks for the heads up on Luis Grijalva. Definitely an oversight on my part. Same for McQueen. They lost a couple of excellent runners from last season but it looks like they have a very good program there.<br /><br />Beaudoin-Rousseau should be running in the seeded race (my guess).Albert Caruanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14434646351717864405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31292861.post-73591214099735545622015-09-25T11:08:51.354-07:002015-09-25T11:08:51.354-07:00Great article Albert, you covered as much as anybo...Great article Albert, you covered as much as anybody could be humanly expected to with the given information. One of the names on the boy's side that I would include would be Luis Grijalva, one of the top juniors in California, who won his race at Woodbridge in the varsity rated race putting him 13th overall out of over 5,000. McQueen from Reno always brings a strong team and I would expect both Weisberg and Gephart to to be in the bottom half of the top 10. Very interested in seeing if Bellarmine's Beaudoin-Rousseau runs on the seeded team. Only a soph, but a 9:45 3,200 and some serious potential.

Which top runners have been holding back for the big races? Which number 2 or 3 is set to provide the sort of punch that can take a team through the post season? At this point I am expecting to see Jesuit, Bellarmine and either Arcadia or Davis in the top 3. I think it's a safe bet that Arcadia's Rocha will be top 5 along with Vernau of Davis, Kurdy from Jesuit and Grijalva from Armijo along with one of the McQueen runners (Weisberg and Gephart) There are also a handful of runners who could have breakout races and make a name for themselves on this big stage.
