Editor's Comments

Off The Top 25:

Charles Hicks - Fourth at Great American XC Classic 14:59.2 for 5K.

Ryan Oosting - No races in our database this season. He told us in a preseason Q&A that he will be running at the Bay State Invitational we will see where he is after that performance.

Matt Strangio - He did not run the Clovis Invitational or Stanford the week before that. Could be dealing with a small injury, defiantly look for him to make a jump into the top 25 again if he gets back to running.

Kashon Harrison - Third at Nike Desert Twilight Festival 14:50 for 5K.

Rory Cavan (IL) - Ran well winning the Naperville Twilight Invite. He was the only guy to run sub 15-minutes. Theres just a lot of other guys also running well.
