Cross country rankings

November 5th, 2009 at Thu, 5th, 2009 at 11:42 am by Megan Managan

The most recent high school cross country coaches rankings have come out, days ahead of the state meet this weekend in Pasco.
The Mercer Island boys qualified for the state contest, and have been ranked No. 9 in the state. This is a step up for the team after being ranked No. 10 last week. The girls dropped out of the ranking after not qualifying for the state meet as a team. Last week they were ranked No. 6.

Here’s the complete 3A boys ranking: 1. North Central (Spokane); 2. Bishop Blanchet (Seattle); 3. Belelvue; 4. Peninsula (Gig Harbor); 5. Mount Spokane; 6. Seattle Prep; 7. Lindbergh (Renton); 8. Columbia River (Vancouver); 9. Mercer Island; 10. Everett

See next week’s issue for a recap of the state meet with local results.
