It's time once again for another cross country state break down from our volunteer pollsters. It was one of the most active weekends yet, with thousands of fast performances and strong competition. So let's get to it!

It was an all day event at Larry and Penny Thompson Park in Miami as the Ferguson Falcons hosted their annual Invitational. The middle schoolers kicked off the morning with a 2.1 mile race of their own for the JV and varsity runners followed by the high schoolers run at the 5K course. Joanna McCoy who transferred from Coral Shores to Gulliver Prep for her senior season recorder her second win of the season in 19:07.02. Irigoyen the reigning 2A Cross Country Champion, picked up his first win of the season in 16:56.59.

"Hot pants." That's what Bert Irigoyen's fellow band members call him when he isn't putting up blazing times on the cross country course. The Ransom Everglades senior leads a sort of double life: state champion runner and the hardcore drummer.

Jason has been looking for more South Florida XC coverage this season and due to the lack of interest I decided I would try to put a few articles together for everyone. And seeing as how I was without a computer last week I figured I would put together a 10-Day Recap of what’s been going on with cross country here in Miami-Dade County. (I really wanted to put together a nice write up of the GMAC Championship last week, so I’ll start off with that and lead into the various district championships from this past week).   Now without further delay, here’s what’s been happening down south…

Finally the new cross country season is upon us! We've had a few pre-season meets and jamborees and now its time to see what our pollsters think about each of the state classifications for the upcoming season. And just remember that this is all volunteer work that is done for the enjoyment of the sport!   *Update: 1A Girls have been submitted!*
