MaineTrackXC has an enormous statistical database with thousands of races, times, throws, & jumps from last decade of XC and Track & Field. A typical visit to the site will show you some type of statistical list based on best times in many various forms. It could be a regional list, a top runner on a course list, or even a top 25 seniors list. Times, particularly fast times, get the runners, coaches, and fans excited. The runners who bust on to the scene, immediately improve the teams, and make some noise across the state get noticed by everyone.
The list below shows the Top 10 ranked seniors based on times this fall. The 1st column shows their 2013 times, whereas 4th & 5th columns show their 1st 5K time ever, along with the grade it happened.
