Will do girl's woodbridge stats later

Thanks for posting those stats. I had started doing some of that but it was more work than I had time for. I was working on a somewhat depressing post about the lack of national top 10 caliber team on the horizon in California, but this shows that pretty well when you see how far ahead Herriman's #2,#3 and #4 runners are, in addition to their depth. And there are other teams besides Herriman in the country like that. Maybe I will generate a list of top teams (both national and Cal) and their speed ratings after Clovis. Hopefully things look different then.

Check out the Burroughs Hoka Times. #3 in CA. 5 in the USA. No seniors as well

JSerra Boys 2022 1:21.46 (16:21 avg) versus 2023 1:15:58 (15:11 avg) ....4 sophs's, 1 Junior

Campolindo 1600 track results, some eye popping times. Wonder how they will translate to Woodward Park.

Shea Volkmer running 4:54 was a surprise. That's a track PR for her, off heavy mileage for XC. She should have a great track season in the spring.

Vacaville posts 3 boys between 4:22-4:29, with a fourth at 4:30. Not to mention the absence of 4:13 runner Colton Walker.

Walker is hurt but has slowly been working his way back apparently.

Campolindo girls look just as good as last year and Volkmer is on another level this year. They should be in the mix for an NXN at-large berth at the end of the season.

Oaks Christian has their pickleball guy entered (Pellettiere) at Clovis. If he's actually running and is anywhere close to the shape he was in last year, then they are a serious contender for Div 4 State. Plugging in another low 15 minute guy at their Woodbridge results this year would have had them slightly edging out JSerra's roster there and being competitive time wise with St Francis.

lol pickleball guy is back. you better watch out, ventura and great oak

Lol, Oaks Christian offers pickleball as an interscholastic sport?
Don’t see it here

If the pickleball program that he’s doing isn’t associated with Oaks Christian, I can imagine that he is eligible to do both that and Oaks Christian XC at the same time

First off, this results page is garbage. We don’t need mixed results. Second, isn’t this XC season?

Isn't St. Francis #4 from Woodbridge a "Casper"? Looks like he was a 22 minute 3 miler last year and he doesn't show in their league meet.

Is Oaks Christian really that good this year?
