Looks like a great race!

Chelmsford, Amherst, Concord Carlisle, Westfield and Keene NH look the the pre-season favorites in the boys team race on paper. The Amherst Invitational will be a close race, with teams that will be among the top in Massachusetts.

Josh Andrews, Brian Hunt, Roy Bondurant, Jason Ayr, Mike Sullivan, and Ricky Lania, look like the favorites at this point. If Pittsfield enters, then Zach Gordon will be up near the front.

Paul Norton, G. Amarsiriwardena, Ben Kulp, Mike Sweeney, Alex Dossin, Matt Coogan, Ian Schofield, Zach Jewett, Michael Stasaitis, Matt Dennis should be some the the front runners of the teams entered so far.

Does anyone know who Westfield is returning besides Ayr, Mike Sullivan, Kyle Pierce, Jeff Burke and Jake Mitchell?

Does Joe Pike return? Sean Sullivan?

WMass doesn't list a runner's year in their results, so it is hard to know who they return.

The girl's race should be very strong.

Amherst, Concord Carlisle, Dennis-Yarmouth and Chelmsford are 4 of the top 5 teams at the All-State D1 race, and should all be strong this year.

Concord Carlisle looks like the favorite on paper, with Cassi Knight and Lindsey Clark, and Emma Schumacher returning.

Longmeadow should be in the team race with Emily Boudreau, Jamie Sullivan, and Rebecca Engell.

Individual favorites include Cassi Knight, Emily Boudreau, Brooke Fallon, Kate Knowles, Paige Mills, Lindsey Clark, Rebecca Engell, Cailey Condit and Meghan Curran
