It's hard to believe that the 2012 Cross Country season is already upon us, but the summer is over, pre-season jamborees and time trials are taking place, and before you know it we'll have official race results flooding the site. So of course that means another annual installment of the Florida Athletic Coaches Association & flrunners.com's Volunteer Pollster's Bi-weekly Cross Country State Rankings! Between using the flrunners database, advice from the flrunners.com community (the coaches, parents, athletes, etc.), and a little bit of their own opinions, we'll be able to see how all of the top teams and individuals in the state rank in their respective classifications throughout the year. Here is this year's cast...
