Mendee will be a top runner in the EDC; but I just don't see him making it to the top in the whole State. Maybe top 5...maybe!!

I give him top 25 but not top 5. Lets be serious here.

why did you get DQed?

Brett Kelly can, and defiantely put up a excellent fight. He has worked hard for this oppurtunity his whole running career and he won't accept failure.

I think Alex Bakken and Alex Kloster are going top EDC runners from RR. They will come out of nowhere.

We'll see...there will be a lot of runners from WF, Shanley/Oak Grove and GF Central up in the top of EDC next season...plus North has Waha Sem and GFRR has Francis Mendee also coming back. I won't count them out as of right now...if they are going to be up there they are going to have to put on some serious miles this summer! Can't wait for the season to start

the east has some good freshman coming in.

Shanley/Oak Grove has two runners that were 8th graders last season that ran sub-11:00 3ks consistently and were key runners down the stretch in their run to a top 3 finish in the EDC.

Shanley/Oak Grove won't have a standout runner like most teams within the EDC; but they will have a very good pack of runners that will make it tough for teams to beat them!

First off, Francis Mendee from GFRR will not even get 2nd team all state this year. It won't happen.
Secondly, here is the way the top three at state will be: Brett Kelly, Jamison Gehrig, Spencer Uetz.

There is no such thing as 2nd team all state in XC its all All-State for the Top 20 and Honorable Mention
for the next few spots I believe.

Those top 3 are very good bets this year...but you have to throw in at least one more person from the west (Bismarck).

I think that Mendee has a chance but it is a small chance right now...we'll see when the season starts!!

but it'll be uetz

Runners 9-20 get 2nd team all state and 1-8 get first team.

How do I know this? Because I've participated in the state meet for the last few years.

Mhmm.... is that right?

The state meet hasn't run yet, but my guy is first in the polls.

why did you get DQed?

i was practically in the middle of the pack, and i'm thinking the third turn of the race i had to jump over the pole or whatever because i got shoved and it just popped out of no where. My left foot when ouside the boundaries, so i'm guess thats what happened.

If you were forced into the flag and missed it because of that they would not have DQed you!! You had to have done something else...
