Pre-Season ... Profiles of Top NY State GIRLS - Cross Country 2011

July 18, 2011 ...

 Individual Runner Watch List - Girls 2011

Once again NY is remarkably deep in talent ... one Footlocker Finalist (and a number of girls who could be) ... A host of national-caliber teams ... Plus more runners with enough talent to challenge the top runners ... 2011 will be another great cross country season in NY.

The individual profiles are not separated by class (I looked at all runners regardless of class) ... I wanted to limit the individual profiles to 10-15 runners, but I went deeper to ensure coverage of that range plus runners from each class.

Below the individual profiles are my "Watch-Lists" for Class A, B, C and D" ... (they are mostly sorted by last year's overall speed ratings (so "new XC runners" are not included) ... Last year's final ratings include Federations, Footlocker and NXN.

Remember - These are my own Watch-Lists ... I make them available so viewers can see who the top individuals are and what they have done ... and I do not take the exact order of the lists too seriously (and neither should anybody else) ... Once the season begins, these lists are not used in any way to rank individual runners.

 Profiles of the Top Returning NY State Girls

How To Read the Table Information: The number following the name is the school grade for the 2011 XC season. The "Class" in parentheses pertains to the 2011 XC season.  The XC data listed below the name are, in order, the race name, race date, place, actual race time, and speed rating (higher is faster).  Selected track data are also listed for most runners ... Girls XC performance database and Girls track &field performance database are available on separate web-pages.

 

Note - Classes Based on Proposed Cut-Offs for 2011 (could change) ...

Update July 26, 2011 ... Added Jessica Donohue (North Shore) ... Just found out Kelsey Margey has transferred to Friends Academy (July 20)

I'm beginning the individual profiles with the top five returning FM girls since they will be the favorites to win NXN Nationals again in 2011...

Christie Rutledge    12    Fayetteville-Manlius   (Section 3 - Class A)
Christie Rutledge had a huge improvement in XC 2010 (compared to 2009) ... she was the NY State Class AA champion and finished an outstanding 2nd at NXN Nationals with a super performance ... Clearly one of the top runners in NY State & the Nation.

The question is obviously her current physical-state since she did not compete in either indoor or outdoor track ... This was addressed by FM Coach Bill Aris in a Syracuse.com forum response as follows, "after being on the same path as Courtney this past winter, which was to take a break from competition and just run (while taking care of early college visits and school work), Christie experienced a slipped sacro iliac problem (lower back) which required physical therapy to fix. after fixing the problem (she’s fine now and running well) we decided to not push it this spring, to not compete in favor of just running in order to get ready for the summer and her senior year starting with xc. she is looking forward to the summer and beyond" ... she is reported to be fine now and training normally.

Brianna Nerud    12    North Shore    (Section 8 - Class B)
Brianna Nerud has proven she is one of the top elite runners in NY State and the nation ... After overcoming some physical problems at the beginning of XC 2010 and improving steadily throughout the season (finishing 13th at NXN regionals), she demonstrated her real abilities during track.

Brianna finished 10th at Indoor Nationals in the Mile (4:53.25) and was 2nd at Indoor States in the 1500m (4:36.28) ... Ran a very good 3000m (9:59.8) in her only performance at that distance ... But best of all, she set the NY State Steeplechase All-Class Record at the IAAF World Youth Championships in Lille, France (6:29.56, which is the 2nd fastest US high school mark ever) ... In tandem with team-mate Samantha Nadel (and a good supporting cast), North Shore looks to be one of the top teams nationally (along with FM and Saratoga).

More Individual Profiles:

Mary Cain     10     Bronxville    (Section 1 - Class C)
Mary Cain is the defending NY State Class C champion in XC and finished 14th at Federations ... Last year was her first XC season; she was a swimmer.

Mary's improving track abilities are truly amazing ... After having a very nice indoor season, she started the outdoor season with a remarkable 4:41.8 DMR 1600m relay split (and nearly ran-down a leading Aisling Cuffe in the process) ... followed that with very fast open times in the 400m (0:55.5) and 800m (2:06.44) ... At NY States, she shattered the NY 1500m record with an amazing 4:17.84 ... At New Balance Outdoor Nationals, ran an amazing 4x800 relay split (2:03.74, with an opening 400m in 58.x) ... and just for good measure, she ran a very fast 3000m in her only effort at that distance (9:28.6, which is the 6th-fastest 3000m in NY history) ... I'm looking forward to her 2011 XC season.

Madison Carr    11    Saratoga    (Section 2 - Class A)
Madison Carr finished an excellent 6th at Federations and 12th at States ... Does not seem to run outdoor track, so no information available there ... As yet, I have not seen any road racing results for her (so I'm not certain of her status for XC 2011).

Megan Young    11    Nanuet   (Section 1 - Class B)
Megan Young was hampered by injuries throughout XC 2010, so I like her 2009 XC performances as a better gauge of her XC abilities ... I last saw Meghan in person at Outdoor Track States 2010; when I saw her at Outdoor States 2011, she looked about 8 or 9 inches taller (but I could be wrong) ... Megan won the Emerging Elite 800m race at New Balance Outdoor Nationals (in a very good 2:11.90) ... I'm expecting a really good 2011 XC season.

Emily was 3rd in the 1500m at Indoor States and set a 1500m PR at Outdoor States (4:33.51) ... she won the unseeded division of the 3000m at States (in an excellent PR of 9:55.84).

Brigid Brennan    10    Northport    (Section 11 - Class A)
Brigid Brennan raced very decently during XC 2010 (after having an outstanding XC season in 2009) ... What I like is her very nice improvement in outdoor track with a series of real good 3000m races (and a PR of 10:04.71 at States) ... also PR'ed nicely at 1500m (4:37.88) ... Expect a really good 2011 XC season.

New York has so many good XC runners ... Sorry I couldn't profile more.

 

Watch-List - Last Year's Ratings - Separated by Class

NOTE - Classes Based on Proposed Cut-Offs for 2011 (could change)

[Class A] .. [Class B] .. [Class C] .. [Class D] .. [CHSAA & PSAL & AIS]

 
CLASS A

Not surprisingly, the FM girls dominate the Class A pre-season ratings (which are
basically last year's overall ratings) ... FM rivals the incredible Saratoga 2004 
team for a reason ... FM 2010 and Saratoga 2004 are the best girls teams of all-time,
and FM 2011 may have something to say about that.

Saratoga 2011 has 5 girls in the pre-season Class A top 20 ... that's why they will
likely be ranked #2 in the nation entering 2011 ... Section 3 again has two runners
who can challenge the FM girls (Laura Leff and Maria LaMontagne).

CLASS B

Class B has some exceptionally good individual talent ... NOTE - Kelsey Margey is
transferring to Friends Academy (Class C), so she is no longer part of Class B.
Lauren Mullins havs the best rating from last year ... But I expect Samantha Nadel will
challenge for the top-spot in Class B and the entire State (she looked super during
outdoor track) ... And the sometimes "overshadowed" Brianna Nerud might well step-up
to the "elite national" level in cross country based upon her national and international
experience in track.

CLASS C

The Bronxville girls are the odds-on favorite to win the Class C title again for good
reason ... It would be no surprise if Mary Cain steps-up to the "elite national" level
in cross country, and in tandem with Meredith Rizzo, Bronxville has a top duo worthy
of a nationally ranked team.

Update NOTE ... Found out that Kelsey Margey is transferring to Friends Academy ....
That could set-up a great race between Kelsey Margey and Mary Cain.

Not sure which class Canton will run in at States (I'm leaving them Class C until they
run State Quals) ... Emily Waligurski is a super talent (Onteora drops to Class C this
season); her track performances suggest a much higher XC rating.

CLASS D

Berne-Know-Westerlo drops to Class D, and that make Courtney Tedeschi the highest rated
retuning runner ... Improving Sarah Coon and defending Class D champion Sage Hurta (who
I expect will be improved in XC) will also vie for the top spot along with the Maple Grove 
girls (favorites to win the class title again).
