Based on Class relay results, I guess Mansfield has some depth, too; finishing 3rd and 5th in the 4xmile without our 9:40i two miler and 9:54i two miler.

I think Mansfield is the best Non-Class A distance team in the state, with 4:30 4:35 4:44 4:45 4:47 4:48 4:49 4:50 for milers and 9:40 9:54 and 3 or more kids who will be around 10 for the duece, as well as a handful who should be under 2 in the 8.

im not quite sure if those times are completely accurate. i feel as u do, mansfield has the best none class a distance team. but im not quite sure of that kind of depth. yes mansfield sure has depth with meagher collins and an emonds kid that can move in an 800, other than them three i could picture anyone else on mansfield breaking 4:45. but yes i agree they are a very strong team.
Emonds kid?
and im not meaning to be a dick but i dont think meagher and collins have the mile speed to pull off those 430's. im not quite sure about meagher but i raced collins his foot speed is not up to par to a 430 or 435. but yet both are formatable 2 milers whom have earned their due.
That's because Watson's the 4:30 (his junior year, hasn't run yet this year), Meagher's run 4:34/9:40 and Collins has run 4:47/9:54.
We have some sprinting depth, too; McDermott's run 10.9/22.7/51.56 (junior year), I've gone 11.1, and we had a freshman that ran 36.73 in the 300 indoors. I guess we're just a Newton North, Jr. :(
meagher
05-01-2005, 08:23 PM
The times are actually very accurate, its just that the kids who have run them do not have their names out on the state level yet, that's all. I got a good laugh out of the "emonds kid" comment too. The kid is unbelievably tough, especially for a sophomore.

This may sound awkward coming from a school that is famous for it's unbelievable sprinters (at one point it held the National 4x400 record), but the distance squad at Brockton, MA is now very deep. For example, they had 5 guys split under 4:40 in the mile at this past State Relays meet.

I'm not sure how to define "depth" but it surprises me that no one has mentioned Lexington, MA, whose 4x1600 team (Paul Morris, Bryan Longo, Archie Abrams, Willi Balenthin) just ran a Mass state record 17:50 on Saturday.
Also, I don't think anyone has mentioned any girls teams. What are the deepest girls distance teams? I would think Newton South has to be up there in Mass.

A team with a lot of depth and versatility in D1 is Gardner. You have Boone at 425-430/940-945, then Glover, Duncan, Lajoie, and Sylvester who can all run in the 435-445 range for the mile. The fivesome can dominate dual meets spread out over the deuce, mile and half.

Only 3 of them sadly, polgar at 4:25 soon to be much lower after Hartford, me at 4:37(better at the 8 tho) in my first mile race since freshman year, but im much better at trach than XC at least so far, and Doug Brecher at 4:41, and i think he was in the top 35 at states XC, looks like young up and coming teams like Wellesley, Brookline, and Brockton will be the favorites, because our senior class was so good this year. We'll be good at track tho, cuz we have tons of good young sprinters.

If you are trying to talk non class-A distance in Mass, then Concord-Carlisle is the best team, at least if you look at XC. We were the only team to even compete with Newton North and Brocton at all-state. We got third, but if seven people had scored, we would probably pwn both. In Emass we went 2-6. We also had a time average 15 seconds less than Mansfield.

This past Saturday at State Coaches, we (Mansfield) had our third and fourth guys in the two-mile run a 10:02 and a 10:05; two milers run 4:32 and 4:39 - the 4:32 is a 17 second PR.
Top four in the mile: 4:30i, 4:32, 4:34, 4:39

you guys are lucky over there at mansfield. Here in Sharon our school is a little bit bigger, i think, but running track isn't the "cool thing to do". So we have a total of about 40-50 people come out for the track team, at least 10 of which don't ever show up to practice. This is reflected in our 1-7 record. But cross country will be a different story. We only need 5 guys for that. :)

Are you joking me? Look at them yourself. EMass is the picture of domination. We scored our top five at 2,3,4,6, and 11. You, assuming you are WH's top guy, got beat by 4 of them. You have all your guys in pretty early, but to compete with Brocton and NN, you have to be incredible in D2, not just good. Unfortunately that did not work out at states, but I guarentee you that NN was not talking about any other D2 team before states.

Coe-Brown in New Hampshire will be strong next Fall. I'm not saying they are the favorites, but thus far no one has mentioned them.
Hey, u seen the sophomores from Pinkerton?...they look pretty good and all the other guys want to be them so there's alot of depth on the team. We might be able to do some damage this year. Also, i think that central will kick some serious arse this year. For class L's this year, I'm guessin', Central, Pinkerton, Londonderry, Keene, Nashua North, and maybe merrimack. They look pretty good too.

Central is going to be a very good team next year. They do lack depth though and that could be their problem.

What about Concord? We have sophomores Brendan Hyland, Nat Nelson, Kyle Audet and Brad Ward. We also have juniors Brendan Cofrin and Patrick Teune. We think we’ll have a better team than last year.

Yeah, NH should be really deep teamwise next year.

When do most of you guys start training for summer running? Just curious what it is compared to our teams schedule.

We started June 1, but those who raced late into the outdoor season start(ed) two weeks after their last race.

What about Xaverian? Their 4x800 alone should show how much depth they have

Three of those 4 return next year, correct? Bleday, Higgins, Amirault? Do they have another 2 lapper waiting in the wings?

Yeah, but a few of us did pretty ****ty at South Shores. Like me.
Yeah, well if you look at the times at EMass, W-H would have beaten Mansfield. We did pretty ***** at states, that was the first time any one of our guys have ever run there. And our top runner even had a bad day at EMass. Even still, if you look at the results, WH had a 10 second edge on average time.

If guys on NN put in a good summer then they just be able to reload, they may not be as dominant but they will still be a solid team. The question is who on the team will step up? and what other teams will challenge?

I wouldn't bother taking times from the EMass Class Meet. There was so much snow on the ground, it was just a tactical race. Comparing times at states makes more sense, though still not much. It's hard to compare one race to another. And average time means ****. You don't need the best average time to win, you need the best placements.

Youre right, but if theres no other way to compare then average times is not bad. Besides, I really dont know if the race is all that tactical except at the front. Other than that, its a basic free for all.

Shouldn't this be on the NH XC thread?
For class L I'm thinkin:
Londonderry; strong even without Olsen and Ahern! Gelinas. Loy, Bassett, Phaneuf, D. Fisher, Coulombe, Peabody, Ditkoff
Nashua North; J. Schroeder, McCarty, Seitz, D. Schroeder
Concord; Hyland, Cofrin, Audet, Ward, Nelson, Teune, Vicsanonzo
Pinkerton; Graham, Greenlaw, MacPherson, Stilling, Grandstaff, Webber
Manchester Central; Hall, Gatetly, Vitagliano
Keene; Scofield, Schnackenberg, Jewett, Russo,
Merrimack; Clark, Talley, Fredette, Godfrey, Hafferkamp
I still like Coe Brown for the MOC!

Listed for Londonderry you basically have the Coe-Brown team with Peabody and Ditkoff thrown in. They are the only two who are acuallly on the Londonderry team. Also Central has Matt Paulson who was injured last year during xc but has run some amazing times in track.
