Girls HS Team Rankings - Week 9
Girls HS Team Rankings - Week 9
FM back on top in NY, Illinois powerhouses, and Blacksburg moving up
The Saucony Elite 50 refers to the top-50 teams in the country (25 boys and 25 girls).
In some great state championship action, US#1 Fayetteville-Manlius (NY) rolled over US#18 Saratoga Springs with just 31 points and an 18:08 average. Fay-Man certainly looks the part of a national contender yet again this year.
US#10 Glenbard West dismantled the field in Illinois, but there was still a great race between the other top teams in class 3A. Behind Glenbard West, US#12 Naperville North finished 2nd, US#13 New Trier was 3rd, and Palatine finished a distant 4th.
US#16 Assumption (KY) won big in their state championship race with just 44 points.
US#15 Desert Vista (AZ) took down Xavier College Prep 60 to 70 and finds themselves in the rankings after a very strong state meet performance.
US#5 Wayzata (MN) took control of the race at the Nike Heartland Regional, winning and qualifying for the national championship for the 2nd straight year.
US#9 Blacksburg (VA) dominated their regional meet with just 24 points and an 18:58 average. They have been quietly amassing impressive victories this season and look like a lock for a state title this weekend.
Stay tuned each week as we bring you the Saucony Elite 50 Team Girls every Wednesday morning!
