Big River Running XC Rankings #1

 

Boys Teams

 

1.     Festus – From 5th in pre-season all the way to #1 at Forest Park. Last year the Ste. Genevieve girls beat a slew of Class 4 teams at the festival and this year it was Festus turn to show some Class 3 pride.

2.     SLUH – After an emotional week the defending champs were 3rd overall, 2nd best for Missouri at Forest Park. The two time defending champs will be tough to dethrone.

3.     Lafayette (Wildwood) – Down 2 spots to #3 these guys will have to hear it from their girl’s team who checked it at #1.  The Lancers were without Austin Hindman at Forest Park

4.     West Plains – The Zizzers hold on to the #4 spot after early season wins at Memphis and the SWCCCA meet.

5.     Rock Bridge –. Up two spots from # 7 in pre-season the Bruins have looked strong this season with a win at Liberty and a solid 6th place finish at the festival.

6.     Rockhurst – We moved them up over Liberty because the Hawklets were missing top runner Willie Thompson who was taking the ACT on Saturday.

7.     Liberty – The Jays move up a spot from #7.

8.     Blue Springs – One of two boys teams not ranked in pre-season.  In case you missed it Stephen has a younger brother and yes he is fast.

9.     Marquette – Marquette hangs on to our #9 spot.

10.     Staley – While their pre-season video and bucket hats are impressive it was their 10th place performance at Forest Park that earned them a spot in the rankings
