Elizabeth Matheson111820653
Andrea Molina1253--29
Emily Castle10123--26

Outlook: We're expecting to see some bigger jumps from their front-runner than her Seasonal ranking would indicate. It'll be the backend of the team, where the most displacers come into play, that will be the deciding factor.

Outlook: The runners-up from the previous year will have some rebuilding to do after the loss of Bella Solomon and Tess Gray. However, they have one of the stronger top threes in the Section, and have the ability to rebound well.

Outlook: It's always a bonus to have a 'Number 1' in the points column when calculating team scores, however, some more depth will be needed to get the girls atop the podium.

Outlook: Naomi Gomel will be back for the races this year, adding a boon to the tigers at VCP. It's a senior heavy team, so they'll be looking to close out High School with their best effort yet.
