Last Year's Summary: 3rd in States D, 1st in Sectionals
Roster
Outlook: The Falcons bring back their entire squad for one last year, as the majority of their team are now Seniors. However, they only raced 5 girls at the Sectional and State Championships, which means injury prevention will be weighed just as heavily as improvement. If they're healthy, they're a strong favorite for the overall title.

Last Year's Summary: 4th in States D, 1st in Sectionals

Last Year's Summary: 2nd in Sectionals
Roster
Outlook: To win the Sectional Title, Beaver River will need to pack as many runners between their 5th and Lewis', and this team has a strong connection at that 3-4-5 positions. They need to stick together, and move up as a unit, and it could be enough to toe the line at States.
