Following Week of Saturday, September 17
Week
1 rankings reveal three teams in Class A who are already in great shape for the battle for spots at Nationals, as Saint Anthony's, Monroe-Woodbury, and Corning are set for the big meets ahead, including the Bowdoin Classic on Saturday for the Hawks and Class D champ Tri-Valley. (Update: MW is off and St. A's is likely at Xavier at VCP? Friar girls are representing at Bowdoin.). B's Burnt Hills will be looking to put on a show among the Section 3 powers at Baldwinsville, and NYSAIS leader Trinity runs at the Xavier invite at Van Cortlandt Park to prove that it's the top Class C team.
Teams are listed with the average speed ratings numbers supplied by Tully Runners, and the number in parentheses shows difference between the 1-5 runners, each point equaling 3 seconds on a 5K course, and smaller compression numbers are generally better.
Big NY meets this
weekend include Baldwinsville, East Aurora, Bowdoin, EJ Herrmann,
Xavier, Gressler, Owego, Suffolk Coaches, Pearl River invite at Milton,
and Broadalbin-Perth. Out of state, teams will also be traveling to
Ocean State, Carlisle, and Six Flags-Wild Safari.
