XC Countdown 2022: #10 Brunswick Boys


Maine MileSplit 2022 XC Team Countdown


With the calendar switching to August soon we wanted to switch gears from the track to the trails to get ready for the upcoming cross-country season. Athletes around the state are hitting the roads and trails building up a strong base in hopes of a successful cross-country in 2022, with the hopes of lifting the state championship as a team in November the ultimate goal. Our plan is to highlight who we think are the top 25 returning girls and boys xc teams over the next three weeks. Thanks to Cheverus XC/track coach Nick Denari for volunteering his time and efforts to put this countdown together.


Miles Logan of Brunswick will be one to watch this fall for the Dragons.

2022 Outlook: Brunswick is always a strong team, and 2022 should be no exception. The Dragons bring back only 3 runners from their squad that won the Class A North in 2021, but they may be able to reload heading into this year. Eli Palmer should lead the way and be in contention for a top finish at the State Championships. Don't be surprised if Ben Klingle is the next one across the line for Brunswick. He ran a very strong 4:35 for 1600m and 10:27 for 3200m and should provide another low stick for the Dragons. It would be shocking if he reverted back into the 19-minute range for 5K after running those times during track season. Senior Miles Logan will look to break the 17-minute barrier for the first time in 2022. Lastly, the Dragons had three very solid freshmen in 2022 in Cashman, Koehler, and Campbell. If two of them can improve and run sub 18 minutes this year, the Dragons will be a force to be reckoned with.
