Watch-List - Last Year's Ratings - Separated by Class [Class A] .. [Class B] .. [Class C] .. [Class D] .. [CHSAA - AIS - PSAL] |
CLASS A Julian Franjieh is the top speed-rated returning Class A runner ... But it very likely other Class A runners will be performing at speed ratings in the 180s to hopefully 190 ... I think a number of these A Class runners will be stepping-up and performing at a very high level (let's hope). Hopefully the coming season will be free of last year's Covid protocols and we can have a "normal" XC season ... The Class A Boys might be very interesting and full of surprises.

CLASS B Gitch Hayes and Gavin Ehlers are the top rated Class B runners ... Both are excellent runners and the preseason favorites in Class B. It is likely other runners will be stepping up and challenging at the State Meet ... It could be a number of runners listed below or maybe somebody new!

Class C Kyle Urban and John Ryan are the only returning Class C runners with an individual speed rating of 170 or higher ... Kyle Urban was consistently in the mid-170s in 2019 and had the highest rating in my database for 2020 (177), so that makes him the preseason favorite. I expect other Class C runners will be stepping-up to make Class C competitive.

CLASS D Like last year, Colton Kempney is the top returning Class D runner ... His speed ratings from 2019 were much higher than the ratings shown below (he was hampered by an injury last year). Last year's Covid problems with lack of usual invitational and championship results was problematic for my XC speed rating data retrieval ... I did not speed rate most dual meets, so many runners were not adequately rated for the upcoming preseason and may not be included here.

CHSAA - AIS - PSAL Myles Hogan is the clear preseason favorite in this group ... Seems very competitive after that.
