and notice our average time is better than MLK's, but yet they still beat us..

hmm lol..

 

thats the way it works when you have one guy get second and the rest of the team way behind. it makes the average time a little deceiving. Mlk had all their guys in a pack so the average time wasn't that great but the points were.

QUOTE(AEtheridge @ Jun 8 2007 - 03:39 PM) 826472960[/snapback]We won AAA that way in 2005. I think our #1 was in the 30s--but they were all right behind him. XC is truly a team sport.

 

No doubt.

 

 

It does help to have 3 or 4 in the top 15 though. /wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" />

DL will be looking to repeat, but will they be able to? This is goin to be a big competition. I think that DL and MLK will both have respectable teams...that's an understatment. But, FRA has got a good team too. They are capable of putting 2-3 all-state runners this year (McCaslin, Davis, Kaiser). It will be an interesting year where the field is wide open. USJC can have another good year. CPA won't get to state. It'll be FRA, DL, MLK going to state. I'll go with FRA, but watch for plenty of others to show up.

i think that we can agree that those three teams (fra, dl, and mlk) will be competitive every year and that region will always have all 3 teams in the top 5 or 6 at state except for maybe the occasional off year but i think this year just like last year will have all 3 in the top 4 at state. i think like last year they will have a shot at getting 1-3 at state but again like last year i think usjc will upset the region sweep. it should be a lot more fun than last year because everyone knew it would be dl, fra, mlk in that order at region but this year it's really up in the air, they can finish in any order so it will be interesting.

FRA will be better than last year, that's for sure. The only problem is, MLK will also be better and DL's top 3 will be pretty darn good (like FRA last year). And actually, after looking at times from last year, DL might struggle if they don't get a 4 and 5. How was their JV last year and who do they have coming up to replace Perkins, Rucker, Bell, and Varble? Kinda reminds me of FRA yet again right there.

I would say FRA is gunning to come back to state prominence after a season with no hardware.

 

If DL's former JV runners step up then they will be dangerous.

 

If MLK's top 7 put more mileage combined in than I do by myself... then that's good cause apparently it didn't happen last year.

 

Look for USJC to upset the world's balance again.

 

Maybe if those doctors can work quickly, we can clone me a couple of times. 4 or 5 would be nice. Otherwise.... it's middle and USJC.

at schools like DL and FRA there will always be JV guys ready to back up the leaving seniors. that is why they never seem to have a bad year. i mean FRA getting 3rd last year was like the worst they've ever done. you would've thought it was the end of the world with how disappointed they were but just about every other school would be thrilled with a 3rd place finish at state. I know DL will have some guys step up to keep them in the top 3 or 4 at state and make another run at the championship

    • As I said somewhere earlier in the thread, the original plans had no outdoor athletic facilities being part of the campus.  The original plan was for HVA to use facilities at nearby schools.  Very late in the process they came up with a plan and found budget to have minimal facilities and crammed them in to space that never was intended for athletic facilities.  
    • Agreed, the way the field is turned you get the evening sun blasting right into the press box making filming a nightmare there, plus its so low.  The field is land locked and parking is a nightmare too. Seems like Knox County could have done a lot better there with the design and the quality. 
    • I think this upcoming team may be pretty good, they will definately be better up front and if they can replace Dozier, Heyward and Rembert, they can be real good. They have the same strange schedule, but this time with 5 straight home games. The road games at Jeff County, Powell will be tough to open up with and the back side at Bearden is the tough game there.  One question I had if anyone knows: There has been some talk of an indoor practice facility in the past, with the new track area now more of a track area, that kind of leaves a need for a football practice area. Just sayin....
    • I find it hard to believe that 70% of a schools enrollment is zoned for another school district
    • I was told that the indoor facility is happening regardless of the vote on the taxes but it would be a much bigger project with more funds if they vote goes through
