Ranking The Fastest XC State Meets Of The Past 14 Years


We know the  Wayne State Meet Course was slow last year.  But exactly how slow did it run, compared to other State Meet Courses over the past 14 years?  And what about Sunken Meadow, where the State Meet is headed to in 2018?

As you could expect, Wayne was one of the slowest courses of All-Time.  It was the slowest average course for Girls by nearly 40seconds, while Katelyn Tuohy's winning time was the fifth slowest ever, despite being, you know, really fast.  As for the boys, the news was a little better, as the mud-fest that was VVS in 2011 took the #1 spot for both slowest average finisher, as well as slowest winning mark of the day.

And the best news of all?  In 2019, we'll be heading back up to SUNY Plattsburgh, to conclude the State Meet Rotation system, with the fastest course in State History.  Get ready to run fast!
