<>1.Lewiston

Last Week: 3

Meet: FOC

Place: 2nd


Lewiston got a huge run by Isaiah Harris who ran a lifetime best of 16:53. With their dominant trio and Harris emerging, this team could be scary good by the post season.

 

<>2.Falmouth

Last Week: 1

Meet: FOC

Place: 3rd


Bryce Murdick led the charge for the Yachtsmen as they placed third at FOC. They were only ten points out of first place which goes to show you how close the meet was. Falmouth heads to Greely on Friday.

 

<>3.Scarborough

Last Week: 2

Meet: FOC

Place: 5th


The Red Storm placed fifth at FOC behind a great race from Robby Hall who placed ninth running a time of 16:38.06. Look for them to win handily on their home course this Friday.

 

 

<>4.Cape Elizabeth

Last Week: 5

Meet: FOC

Place: 4th


The duo of Simpson and Doane paid huge dividends on Saturday as they both placed in the top fifteen. Cape also got big runs from Kyle Kennedy and Will Britton. They will get another chance at Falmouth this Friday.

 

<>5. Ellsworth

Last Week: 4

Meet: FOC

Place: 15th

Ellsworth was without Dan Curts who opted not to run due to illness. The rams were paced by Robert Looker who placed 11th. Look for Ellsworth to continue to be dominant in eastern Maine.
