Boys MileSplit Team - East Aurora
The McQuaid Invitational in NY marks the first big test of the season for many schools in the Northeast and Canada. The 2015 edition did NOT disappoint. In the elite race, it came down to a tie breaker between East Aurora and the 2014 NXN squad from Liverpool.

-- MileSplit NY (@MileSplitNY) October 3, 2015If NY XC wasn't scary enough already, East Aurora's performance is even more impressive if you consider that they are a Class C school. One of the smaller divisions of the NY class system (A,B,C,D), matching up with the Class A powerhouse Liverpool.
Last year we saw Liverpool, FM, and St. Anthony's make it to NXN. Could the small school underdogs from East Aurora be poised for a trip to Portland in 2015!?
