Maynehan is their number tow and was more than a minute behind in the gigh 19's. Big drop off after their top two as their next three are three minutes behind in the mid 21 minute range last year. Should battle it out for second but will have to really imrpove their third through fif th runners to compete with Lake George for the top spoy in the league.

Team Outlook: Hit hard by graduation as they lose their top four to graduation. Gondella looks to be their top runner and was just under 22 minutes ;ast year. Rest of the team were all over 23 minutes so they'll have to rebuild and improve to move up in the league.

Key Losses:Jason Ludlow, Cooper Smith

Team Outlook: Lose two out of their top five but return everyone else. Linehan returns as the defending leagye champion and was in the mid 16's last year.Big gap after Linehan as Rimualdo is their nymber two and was almost three minutes behind in the mid 19's. West is their thrid and was in the mid 20's. Moynehan and Malave-Chiccone should be their fourth and fif th are were in the low to mid 21 minute range. Team looks to be the team to beat but will still want their fourth and fifth need to close the gap to thei top three.

Connelly is their third runner and i about a minute back in the mid 20's. Fourth through sixth runners are more than two minutes back. If they can close the gap to their third runner then they'll have a good chance to move up in the league.
