This fall at MaineTrackXC we will feature "The SB Report". "The SB Report" will feature power rankings of the top 10 girls & boys teams, as well as individuals in the state. The author of the blog Sam Bonsey, has contributed to MaineTrackXC in the past and we are glad we can share his thoughts on the 2012 XC season. Bonsey is a former XC/track runner from Falmouth HS, and is currently a journalism student at the University of Maine. Check out his writing each week this fall.

Last Week: 1
Meet: at Freeport
Place: 1st
Time: 16:04
Eastman destroyed the competition at Freeport running an incredibly fast time of 16:04. I don’t have official word, but that has to be the course record. Eastman will get his chance to run against the top guys in New England this Saturday at the Manchester Invitational.
