This is a strong group, and we are looking to go to state this season. We only lost one senior, and are returning some very strong runners.
Our camp was very encouraging. Annie (Pickford) is running as well as ever, but other girls are closing the gap. The league will be very strong, but I think we can compete with any team in it.
We have sort of a number one by committee. A lot of these guys are even in ability, so we'll see who steps up in practices. We had 25-30 kids show up for every summer workout, and I am very optimistic. This team should go to state this year.
The 2004 team was very young and finished strong. We have a lot of sophomores and juniors, and a couple of returning seniors to show some leadership.
Let's look for a year like last year and hope it doesn't happen. That's all we can do.
