This California Baptist star will most likely prove us wrong in one of two ways: Our current preseason fully translate those results to the grass, we’ll cross our fingers and place her at TSR #39 in our preseason and the fact that she has been a top-20 All-American before adds some additional value to her 2023 preseason That's why we'll award her bullet-proof cross country resume with a preseason ranking of TSR #33. 32. Of course, what Halladay-Lowry did on the oval was arguably even better.

As we venture into the fall months, it feels like we have a fairly clear idea of what we're going to Of course, if we meet in the middle between those two points of her cross country resume, then a preseason We'll be honest, we have no idea what to think about those times. see her fully translate her crazy times to the grass, we figured a spot near the exact middle of our preseason finishing outside of the top-30 in Frentheway's last two national meets would suggest that a TSR #21 preseason

Of course, before we get too far ahead of ourselves, let's rewind and chat about what this team did throughout one of which was a low-stick, the Ducks were in an excellent position through 60% of their scoring group Barnett is currently ranked at TSR #50 in our preseason individual rankings. Patterson is currently ranked at TSR #45 in our preseason individual rankings. However, trying to determine how strong that backend group is actually going to be is the bigger challenge

And truthfully, when you review his performances from last fall, Knight never really had an "off" day to find a fair compromise between Abdalla's national meet and regular season performances, we get a preseason three-time All-American who had a moment of elite brilliance should be enough for a top-25 spot in our preseason But you know what did? His 4th place finish at the ACC XC Championships. He had far greater command of his fitness and he simply looked like he knew what he was doing.

But for our 2023 preseason rankings, Mia Barnett was our lucky winner. And while she would post a respectable 40th place finish, her race simply wasn't as magical as what we However, what really has us so high on this possible Fighting Irish low-stick is the fact that she ran But what we found more interesting was the fact that she placed 5th at the 2023 USATF U20 XC National from our preseason rankings.

Which is exactly what happened. That is largely why we didn't have her cracking the top-five in our preseason rankings. That is ultimately why we have opted to keep her at TSR #2 in our preseason rankings rather than TSR What we saw out of Tuohy during the 2022-2023 academic year was beyond incredible. What we saw from her in June was clearly a fluke and no one should be doubting her abilities.

She matched her TSR #14 preseason cross country ranking at the NCAA XC Championships this past fall. did we think that an NCAA event leader from last spring would be ranked outside of the top-20 of our preseason 09 (1500), 4:33 (mile), 8:55 (3k) and 15:33 (5k), Tyynismaa undeniably belongs in the top-25 of our preseason What's not to like? Yes, it's true, we’ve opted to conservatively rank Willis at a preseason spot of TSR #16.

That was largely expected for a team ranked at TSR #20 in our 2022 preseason team rankings, but that Arkansas began the 2022-23 academic year with most of their roster racing a 5k at the Cowboy Preview. Luckily for them, this group mostly delivered on that last part. That was a solid result for the ‘Hogs who also took down a rising Ole Miss group. Our preseason TSR #16 runner’s relative youth suggests that he has even more upside to tap into.

Although Hilda Olemomoi lacks the experience that many of her competitors who have been entrenched in the D1 And by March, we may be looking at her preseason ranking as too low when we approach the indoor national And the way that she won that race is probably what excites us the most about McCabe. distances, compared to the longer distances, simply needed a great presence in the top-10 portion of our preseason Roe owns multiple All-American honors, has excellent experience against the nation's premiere distance

We'll admit, we don't have a perfectly good grasp on what Mauri could do with the Fighting Irish in the We simply don't know what he's going to do in the postseason. fantastic, we don't truly know how his cross country credentials match up against the best men at the D1 However, a 119th place finish at Nuttycombe left us unsure of what this Utah native would be able to And because of that, we were able to find, what we think, is a very solid position for him in our top
