1) Wachusett (MA) 46, 2) Amherst (MA) 52, 3) Keene (NH) 62.
INDIVIDUALS:
1. Dan Sullivan, Wachusett, 15:53 2) Ian Marcus, Amherst, 15:58 3) Zach
Emerson, Hillsboro-Deering (NH) 16:07
Highlights: Everyone knew that Wachusett would be strong this year but
no
one thought they would be this strong as the team from Central MA
overpowered the strongest boys field in the 7 year history of the event.
Dan
Sullivan eclipsed the course record by 3 seconds and bettered the time
of
last years Invite and State Champ Owen Washburn by 17 seconds and this
under
hot and muggy conditions. Sullivan, who was not listed as a pre-season
contender for this year¹s individual MA title must now be regarded
as one of
the top boys runners in the state.

to
breeze to a 41 second victory. Sayer shattered the old course record of
18:31 set by State Champ Lauren Matthews in 1997. Sayer¹s time may
be the
