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.
Boys Individual XC Power Rankings: Week 9
"The SB Report" (click link to read the entire blog post)
Curts edged Silas Eastman in one of the most epic battles we have seen in Maine history. His time of 15:47.52 is now officially the tenth fastest ever on the Belfast course. Curts has to be considered one of the favorites to win the New England Championship’s on Nov. 10th.
<>2.Silas Eastman Fryeburg
Eastman suffered a rare loss in the last state meet of his brilliant career. Despite the loss, Eastman should be considered one of the favorites to win the New England Championships. He may even have an edge on Curts with the race being at Twinbrooks.
<>3.Jack Pierce Merriconeag
Pierce saved the best for last as he pulled away from Holt-Andrews during the last mile running a life time best of 15:57.41. Look for Pierce to contend for a top ten finish at New England’s.
Nadeau showed on Saturday that last week was just a fluke as he brought home the Class A state championship running a time of 16:36.40. Look for Nadeau to contend for a top 25 finish at New England’s.
