Team Preview
With 8 of the top 12 teams in the most recent MaineTrackXC Fan/Athlete Poll, the FOC team competition should be very tight. #1 ranked Cheverus is the favorite, the Lady Stags are coming off a 30 point win in the Southwest Classic. #3 Massabesic is looking for a little redemeption as they had a tough day in the heat last Saturday. #5 John Bapst will get to square off for the first time against some of the best in the state. Other ranked teams running are #7 Brunswick, #8 Falmouth, #10 Yarmouth, #11 Mt Blue & #12 Caribou. It should be a great day, with a surprise or two expected in a meet this big. Let's take a closer looked at the top teams.
#1 Cheverus
The Defending Class A Champions look primed for an even better year in 2010, look for them to be the team to beat. They have the best 1-2-3 in the State/

#3 Massabesic
The Mustangs will look to rebound after a tough day at the Southwest Classic, running without their #1 and an off day from their #2 they were just 30 points back of Cheverus, this could be a real tight race. Massabesic has the deepest team in the state.

#5 John Bapst
The Crusaders are undefeated on the season, they'll face a shift challenge from the two of the best in Class A. It's too bad Cape isn't racing or we would have had a good battle from the top two teams in Class B. Look for Bapst to hold their own on Saturday in their first 5k of the year.
