SO#9 Rogers ARAt the Chile Pepper Festival in Arkansas, HL#2/US#7 Potosi MO got a sterling 1-2 from seniors Josh Thebeau (14:56) and Josh Mathis (14:58) on its way to a 60-77 victory over The Woodlands. Under great running conditions, Potosi averaged 15:30 for the 5k course, not too far off last year’s winning 15:21 posted by Foot Locker finalist Daniel Gerber and equaling Daniel Roberts’s (2-time national finalist) runner-up time. Potosi Coach Steve Davis said, "We ran well, though our #5 today is usually up with our #3 (both sophomores). We like the competition at this meet." The Woodlands, coming off a huge win at Nike South last week, had a solid effort overall with 5 in the top 25 and a 15:53 average, besting their 2005 average by 25 seconds. "We were running against Potosi, #7 nationally ranked, and they ran like they were #1! The defeat came as a result of Potosi running extremely well. We were sort of flat, had some very good efforts, but we were just outrun," said Woodlands Coach Dan Green. A&M Consolidated was 3rd with 118 points and a 15:59 average, Lockhart TX 4th, Tupelo MS 5th and Rogers AR 6th as all these South ranked teams performed well. Next: The Woodlands and A&M will not race with Districts coming up the following week, Tupelo hosts an invitational, Lockhart competes at the Gonzalez Invite, Rogers is hosting an invite on Tues the 24th Chile Pepper Cross Country Festival - Oct 14

OTHER RESULTS:
Canyon TX, 3A state runner-up in 2005, locked horns at its home invitational with Hereford TX, the 4A defending state champs. When the dust settled, Canyon was on top, 28-44. Canyon sr Lauren Simpson, a multiple state titlist, garnered individual gold with an 11:29 clocking. "This was a new team time record on our course (11:57 average), beating all our past state championship teams, " said Canyon Coach Brittney Lanehart. She added, "Early in the year I was skeptical about our team as we were beaten badly by Hereford in a practice meet and beaten by them again at Plainview. However, this group has made tremendous improvement since August and I think they are now out to prove they are one of the best teams in the state at any classification."
