Summary of Midwest Top Ten, Week Ending Oct. 6, 2007

By Jeff Hollobaugh, Dyestat MW Regional Editor

Boys - Girls


Last weekend saw a strange mix of results. Either our top teams were resting in preparation for their conference champs and state qualifying meets, or they wished they were. Brutally unseasonable heat hammered runners across the Midwest, with the Portage Invite and the West Aurora Stampede among those that saw plenty of ambulance action.
