Girls Rankings
Megan Venables (NJ, pictured below) was a big mover this weekend, going from not ranked to 5th with her big win and course record at the Briarwood Invite. Megan didn't move out of the Northeast at Foot Locker's last year, but is poised to do big things this year. Aisling Cuffe (NY) kept her stranglehold on the top spot with a 54 second course record performance at the PTXC2 Invite. Molly Grabill (CA) crushed the Mt. Carmel course record, pulling Alli Billmeyer (CA) under the record and into the rankings as well. Stay tuned as the rankings will be updated weekly for the rest of the season.
