These rankings are scored by taking the best times from last cross country season, removing the girls who graduated, and scoring the entire state as one big meet. While it's certainly not perfect and does not take into account track season, it is traditionally a very good indicator of depth.
We see Estero and Lakewood Ranch TIED through five runners, with Estero coming out on top on #6. There are a lot of VERY strong looking teams coming back this year. Chiles is surprisingly pretty far down, but made big strides in track season (as seen in the other article, which scored track times) and so has Creekside.
