Columbine Invite Results!

[Shiny Heiny]

With powerhouse teams such as Creek, Dakota, Air Academy, and Rampart being absent from the Columbine Invite, the race belonged to 3 teams. And sure enough, those 3 finished at the top. However, it was the order that they finished that once again stirred the SW Rankings. With SW#6 Ft Collins going in as the favorites, Wheat Ridge went out and proved that they are for real this year with an 11 point victory over the Lambkins. Also, SW#10 Chaparral was only 9 points behind Ft Collins. Here are the full boys results:

[hawaiianfiveoh]

great job heiny!! I guess I have been right all along about WR, they looked great!

[benzel]

Damm, if our (Ft. Collins) boys could have recruited Katie Vanetta yesterday, we would have sneaked out a 3 point win!!! :rolleyes:

[mtnrunner]

State is gonna be interesting because it seems like teams like Ft. Collins and Dakota Ridge are somewhat on the decline while Rampart and Chap are up and coming. Yet Wheatridge has seemed to find a new peak every race, their pack is definitely impressive. By the way Chap was missing their number two runner yesterday and that could of bumped them up to second. Two last things, who all is gonna be at loveland next week and was the 14:38 in the paper just a misprint cause if not that would be unreal.

LMAO:D!

What is even more impressive is she would have been the number 3 teams number 2 runner.

Ok well I am chap's number two runner and I hopefully would have beat her if i ran cause I have in every other race. But it is kinda sad that I have to even say that about a chick, she is amazing.

[RockyRegion]

heads up! MT. View loses Coulson Goodwin to injury, Davis loses Inkley, as it looks he is out for the season... coach says he may have quit the team.

[benzel]

great job heiny!! I guess I have been right all along about WR, they looked great!

I take video of the Fort Collins team each week to put on the team website. I happened to catch the Wheatridge boys great finish at Columbine. You can check it out at:

So, your chap's #2 runner? Thats pretty cool, you guys look really good this year and busch will always be a contendor for the win

[RockyRegion]

Yeah, i was wondering where you guys ran today? we were up at Centerra, and there were some studs there but our team took it some what easy except for Bush, who got sixth, he has got good 5k speed but I really think his race is a 10k.

Our JV guys ran at Northglenn, but our top 5 guys needed a week off! bc after this week, we have 4 very big races all in a row!!

[TeleTurner]

hey mtn runner, what were the results to the centerra invite? like teamwise.

[mtnrunner]

Los Alamos, NM won overall pretty easily with GJ finishing in second and then 3,4, and 5 were really close between dakota ridge, cheyenne central, and chap, in that order, i think creek finished like sixth but I'm not sure. Their were some big name individuals like medina, manilafasha, tolev, appel, and busch, but the course wasn't too exciting.

[TeleTurner]

Nice, Clayton ran a 16:10 at the Greeley Central Race. It was quite a bit of spongy grass that was freshly cut too so it wasn't great for my allergies at least. man i can't wait for the first frost.
