Actual Results

1	Harrison Brown	11	Lafayette (Wildwood) High School	16:20.18	1
2	Nassim Oufattole	12	Lafayette (Wildwood) High School	16:33.49	2
3	Nick Warmann	12	Marquette High School	16:33.57	3
4	Andrew Lofgren	12	Parkway West High School	16:38.35	4
5	Blake Selm	12	Parkway West High School	16:39.44	5
6	Christian Baker	11	Kirkwood High School	16:41.92	6
7	Matyas Csiki-fejer	12	Parkway West High School	16:46.31	7
8	Nathan Reed	12	Lafayette (Wildwood) High School	16:50.15	8
9	Cerow Aligab	12	Parkway West High School	16:50.92	9
10	Jacob Ewen	11	Kirkwood High School	16:52.62	10

Chronologically, it was another rough one with only 2/10 being right (Oufattole - 2 and Reed -8), but in terms of the 10 top overall, 7/10. Nick Warmann and Cerow Aligab were not surprising, but that Warmann, who was handled by Baker at Parkway Central a month ago, handled Baker this weekend was a bit of a surprise. Great race from Warmann this week.

Teams - Our Picks:

1. Parkway West

2. Lafayette

3. Kirkwood

4. Eureka

Actual Results

1. Lafayette

2. Parkway West

3. Kirkwood

4. Marquette

Again, a great day from Marquette thrust them into a qualifying spot, but an even better day led Lafayette to the upset victory over Parkway West. We hit on 3/4 of the teams, but only got 1 (Kirkwood) right order-wise.

Girls - Our Picks:

1. Mikayla Reed - Washington

2. Chloe Hershenow - Parkway West

3. Emily Dickson - Parkway West

4. Mia Reed - Washington

5. Adyson Delaney - Eureka

6. Mollie Rogan - Lafayette

7. Claire Smout - Parkway West

8. Hannah Santoni - Kirkwood

9. Morgan Holdmeyer - Washington

10. Erin Gilbert - Francis Howell

Actual Results

1	Mikayla Reed	12	Washington High School	19:37.40	1
2	Emily Dickson	12	Parkway West High School	19:50.60	2
3	Mollie Rogan	12	Lafayette (Wildwood) High School	20:03.20	3
4	Claire Smout	11	Parkway West High School	20:19.30	4
5	Adyson Delaney	12	Eureka High School	20:25.60	5
6	Claire Ayers	11	Washington High School	20:26.00	6
7	Mia Reed	9	Washington High School	20:31.50	7
8	Anna Warren	10	Marquette High School	20:32.20	8
9	Morgan Holdmeyer	12	Washington High School	20:37.20	9
10	Danielle Wright	12	Ursuline Academy	20:37.90	10

Well... we got 3/10 right in the chronological results. District 2 girls experienced a huge shake up as the under-performing (up to this point) Washington Blue Jays had a big break through and ran up to where we had them ranked preseason (as you will see in the team results). As for the top 10, we were actually 7/10 again as Hershenow had an off day, as did Gilbert, and Santoni finished just outside the top 10 in 11th.

Teams - Our Picks:

1. Parkway West

2. Kirkwood

3. Washington

4. Eureka

Actual Results:

1. Washington

2. Parkway West

3. Eureka

4. Kirkwood

We hit on all 4 teams, but did not hit on a single place! Washington had a huge day on their tough home course and Eureka and Kirkwood both qualified comfortably ahead of 5th place Francis Howell.
