It's kind of interesting BC had a team that won the 4A-5A contest; however, they entered another younger-boy team also; that placed 2nd in the 3A & U contest. They should be strong again for several more years......

Boys run 5k or 3.1 miles. Those times are slow but its the beginning of the season and the course could have affected the times. But overall, those times are great. Thats how you win state team titles, having everyone come in very close to each other.
