Scouting Report: John A. Ferguson HS Girls Ryan Raposo Aug 09, 2013

The John A. Ferguson girls are looking good as we head into the 2013 cross country season.

I attribute much of the bright outlook to the fact that many of my top ten are heading into their senior year and their summer attendance has been very on point compared to last year. They've even got me more motivated for this season!
