Team Analysis
1. Belvidere North - a strong run with a 2nd place finish at Sterling against AAA #2 Geneva. North is looking strong led by Sophomore Paul Zeman. A strong 33 second split will make this team tough to beat.
2. Normal University - continues to run strong week after week finishing 2nd last Saturday at East Peoria. Sophomore James Clay just won the individual race by 1 second over Jon Richards of Streator. 2-5 man 14 second split is making believers out of more and more people.
3. Springfield - off. Running at Peoria this Saturday.
4. Dixon - Ran great at Sterling finishing in 3rd, 9 points behind #1 Belvidere North. Strong front trio in Kasey Ferrigan, Kyle Boone and Matt Logan, the Dukes found a 4th man in Freshman Zach Payne. 55 second split right now, is putting themselves in great position for a strong November run.
5. Galesburg - After winning at Dunlap last week, the Silver Streaks responded with a strong 3rd place finish at East Peoria. Gabe Moreno continues to look strong as Galesburg's #1 man, their 5th man is too far back and will be their down fall if they can't move him forward.
