The Harrier Rankings
National and regional team rankings of the 2003 cross country season
List #3 - October 13
by Marc Bloom, editor, The Harrier


based on results through Oct 12 - next rankings Nov. 5.

Saratoga NY takes over #1 on girls list. The Woodlands TX boys retain #1 on the boys list, with Denver West CO moving up from 10th to 4th. All three were impressive at the Great American, and Saratoga followed that up with a record setting performance in the Girls Eastern States Championship at the Manhattan Invitational Saturday.
Girls - Former #1 Los Alamos NM has not travelled and had an unexpectedly narrow 9-point win in-state at the Albuquerque Academy Inv Sept 27. Newcomers in the top 10 are #4 Valparaiso IN, #8 Argyle NY, which ran second to Saratoga at both Great American and Manhattan, #9 College Park CA, and #10 Flathead MT. Sultana CA, Snohomish WA and Desert Vista AZ dropped out of the top 10.
Boys - There was less change in the boys list as #8 Roosevelt DesMoines IA is the only newcomer to the top 10 and Mead WA is the only team to fall out of the top 10.
