John Drappi and Jon Gilman both validated their top 10

rankings with comfortable wins in their respective

divisions at the Wachusett Invitational.  Gilman’s

teammate Hallquist has had an up and down season but

ran well at Wachusett.  The big story at the meet was

the huge breakthrough by Tim Creedon of Wachusett.  He

was surrounded by St Johns (S) runners and battled

them the whole way and eventually beat all but Drappi.

Teams


Teams



St Johns (S) dominated as expected at the Wachusett

Invite.  Their top 4 have been impressively consistent

all season and unless they burnout before the state

meet, they are going to be tough to beat.  There is a

30 second gap between 4 and 5/6 but the 5 and 6

runners are running well enough such that St Johns (S)

can beat Gloucester.  Still, gamblers who have bet

money against any Dunsky coached Gloucester team have

lost a lot of money.  What a race it is going to be in

the 12 degree slush on the mountain!
