Who has the Best Cross-Country Team?

[etownrunnercc]

isn't MUS a DII school?

cause FRA is A/AA

 

my rankings for A/AA

 

1. FRA

2. Page (remember they beat Elizabethton)

3. Elizabethton

4. CCS

5. CPA

my thoughts on these teams... I've seen them all in action

 

1. FRA - it looks like they've peaked with an average time of 17:15.... they're #5 guy ran like a 17:50..... I think they've peaked. lots of teams do for the TN classic

2. Page - this is a team to watch for. they are extremely quick and have the fastest A/AA runner.

3. Elizabethton - this team is always good so just plain watch out

4. CCS - this team is LOTS better than anyone thinks... they aren't close to peaking... so make sure you watch out for them

5. CPA - they've got some stuff to work on... but they will be up there by the end of the season

 

 

alright...this is Josh Jaynes. im runnin in the one spot 4 etown...i just want u to know before u go crazy that our three man was out that race....sprained ankle...so page beating us meant nothin....it was only 5 points. have some of that...lol. but i aint trying to make waves. im just sayin u cant get to cocky yet.

alright thats fine with me. Page is usually faster than Elizabethton at TN classic rather than state....

the ccs runner that finished #5 in the race nearly died between mile 1 and 2. and it wasn't because of going out too fast. he's usually about 5 seconds slower than the #1 guy. thats a lot of places that need to be modified. at the end of the year e-town will be faster than FRA... so will ccs

So it will definently be CCS and E-Town 1 and 2 in whatever order it comes out

what year are you?

[xcmiler20]

Elizabethton will be there come state count on it with their team in full health now..they are not even close to peaking..slow start to season for EHS but being from the east i can tell you they are better than a team only supported by 1 runner when elizabethton could be looking at a 1,2 finish with adam green and josh jaynes.

Yall arent given anyone else a shot. yea etown is good but dont hand out that trophy just yet. i dont think fra has peaked quite yet, i think they have a little more dropping to do. i guess we'll find out if they or some other team can stop the etown bandwaggon

[Coniglio]

it looked to me at the TN classic that FRA peaked... now I might be wrong but I think their second peak will be slower.... we shall see

 

page is a lot faster than normal.... they have the fastest runner in A/AA so far

 

e-town is plain quick... with the #3 coming back they will be the top team in the rankings until state

 

and ccs- nobody expects anything from this team... and I'll give you a heads up for next year. DON'T expect anything from this team. they won't be in contention next year.... they've been doing some speed and other hard workouts lately.

the freshman dropped 10 seconds from a 16:52 to a 16:42 in time trials at practice.... so expect the next 3 mile to be around a 16:40 for the next race... this team is getting faster by the day.

 

Yall arent given anyone else a shot. yea etown is good but dont hand out that trophy just yet. i dont think fra has peaked quite yet, i think they have a little more dropping to do. i guess we'll find out if they or some other team can stop the etown bandwaggon

oh yeah... I'm not handing out the trophy... It's going to be a close one between etown, fra, page, and ccs

any of those 4 can win.

5 years ago the runner up lost by 4 points... so anything can happen!

get to work guys!

Are you talking about girls CC? If you think DB is better than Science Hill in boys then you are sadly mistaken. DB may be fourth or fifth in the district behind SHHS, Daniel Boone, David Crockett, and maybe South.

Yes, Db is better than SHHS, but no competion to betsy.

[xcmiler20]

Where has ccs been racing...cant remember if they where at TN classic..sorry but i dont think page is deep enough for a state title

[track800ehs]

alright guys, here are the cold hard facts. I am david mcdaniel. i ran for eliz. in XC and track. i finished 8th in the state last year in XC and 3rd in the 800. i now run at ETSU.

 

There are A LOT of good teams in a/aa. FRA...FRA is the tradition. they have an indisputable dynasty. CCS ALWAYS has a good team finishing in the top 5 almost every year at state, they also have consistency. I know nothing of Page except that they have a VERY talented runner in Joseph Pair. All these teams are definitely in the running, and E TOWN definitely needs to SHUT THEIR MOUTHS and just run (yeah thats you, josh and adam).

the facts.

Adam green is talented. he finished 2nd last year by a step to Longstreth. The boy has guts and can run when it counts. He always shows up when he's needed the most. 2 time all- stater. and a fine soccer player.

 

Now, for Josh. Josh's times might not reflect how talented he actually is. None of you have ever run with him, but josh is like my brother. We practically live together. I've run every step with this boy since his freshman year. HE HAS TALENT> A LOT. Josh's potential is well in the 14's. youre lookin at a distance runner that can run a 51 in the 400, and go well under 2:00 in the 800. His speed is unbelievable. If he had the guts that adam has he would be unbelievable, but josh is a sissy and he might not ever fill his potential. lol sry bro.

 

etown has 2 awesome runners, but the rest are inconsistent and questionable. So, that means that their state title chances are questionable.

however i do predict that it will be: Josh jaynes, Adam Green, and Joseph pair at the top of the podium this year. In what order i do not know, but they will be there.

 

as for josh and adam: shut up and run.

Oak Ridge-8

Houston- 8

Farragut- 7

Clarksville- 7 All Boys

It runs in cycles so if your the big dog now get ready to get kicked off your porch in the near future.

FHS has had an Individual or a Team as a Champion every decade since the 70's. The longest they been without a X-C Champion or Champions is 4 years. I would say that is a strong program.
