After defeating previous #1 Walter Johnson twice over a week, B-CC girls traveled down to Cary, NC to run the fastest times of any squad in Maryland so far this fall. 4 girls under 20 minutes at Wake-Med to finish 7th in competitive Southeast Region elite meet and 79 second spread with their 19:38 average. Race on the state meet course this weekend at Bull Run against many top 10 ranked squads.

Scored a major win at Oatlands on Saturday against top competition in Virginia. Could see minute drops off their runners going from Oatlands to DCXC this weekend and knock down that 20:32 season best average led by Sami King and solid #2 in Olivia Woods.

Led by top 5 finishers Sarah Coffey (3rd) & Kelly Shearer (4th), Hereford girls took early season bragging rights in Baltimore County over ranked squads Dulaney and Towson in Barnhart Invite victory. Get opportunity to race against #1 B-CC and other top programs on their home course this weekend. Been a while since Hereford has won their own invite, but opportunity is there this Saturday at Bull Run Invite.

Bounced back from a 17 point loss to Centennial to lose their top spot in 3A with a big win and rolling out fast times at Blazers Invite led by race champ Jasmine Tiamfook (18:58). Their entire top 7 has now run in the 20 minute range or faster this season. Get a chance to race Centennial again on Saturday at Bull Run Invite.

In the middle of a tight three way battle among Baltimore County's top 3 squads at the Barnhart Invite. Averaged 20:12 as a team and had best team spread among the top 3 teams at 1:18. Racing at Bull Run on Saturday. Can they regain top spot among Baltimore County teams again on Saturday against Hereford and Towson.

Finished just 5 points behind Dulaney in third place at Barnhart Invite led by race runner-up Johanna Admiraal. They will mix it up again with Hereford and Dulaney, but probably more interested to see how they match up against 3A competition Centennial and River Hill.

Ran w/o #2 and #3 runners at Oatlands, which showed in their team finish back in 16th place. Will need both Emily Murphy and Kati Kirsch back (hopefully this weekend at DCXC) to show why they were considered as best team in state. Abbey Green has been running well up front and Jasmine Garrett (20:02 5K) has stepped up, but still need to improve back end for championship season.

The top 10 teams remain, but the order changes for the All-Maryland Girls Top 10 Team Rankings. And it should change again with so many more head to head matchups on Saturday at the Bull Run Invite with 7 of the top 10 ranked teams racing at Hereford High School. #2 Walt Whitman & #9 Walter Johnson will be at DCXC, while Good Counsel travels up to Pennsylvania for the Carlisle Invitational.
