2) Below are your names and times. As I told the runners today - beyond the Top 12, I don't care about what place you finish. I will not include places for our dual meet results.
3) I have added an Average Mile column - this allows for an easy conversion between courses. Our course is 1.9 miles, but another course may be shorter. As a general rule, a longer course produces a higher average number, but it is a helpful mechanism to see how well you did compared to previous results.
4) If you ran for me last year (or the year before), all your results are still posted on this site! Scroll down for last years, and check the next page for two years ago!
5) If anyone is curious how meets are scored, I will post the process below the results - that way, if you aren't interested you don't have to sit through a wall of text.

Cross country meets are scored using the top 7 runners from each team. The top 5 runners get points for their team, while #6 and #7 (if they finish ahead of the opposing teams 5th runner) are used to displace the opposing team.
Each runner is awarded a point value for the place they finish: 1st place gets 1, 2nd place gets 2, and so on. Once a team has it's top 7 runners in, all remaining places go to the opposing team.
The scores of the top 5 runners from each team are added up, and the team with the lowest total wins.
For today's girls race, the top 12 went like this:
1) Hale
2) Hale
3) Oak
4) Hale
5) Oak
6) Hale
7) Oak
8) Hale
9) Hale
10) Oak
11) Hale
12) Hale
So Hale gets 1+2+4+6+8 = 21 points. And because we had our 6th runner finish 9th (ahead of Oak's 4th), and our 7th runner finished 11th (ahead of Oak's 5th), they were able to knock Oak's point total higher, making it harder for them to win.
Oak finishes with 3+5+7+10+12 = 37 points. Because our 7th runner finished in 11th, Oak automatically gets the points for 12th place.
For the boys race:
1) Oak
2) Oak
3) Hale
4) Oak
5) Oak
6) Hale
7) Oak
8) Hale
9) Oak
10) Hale
11) Hale
12) Hale
Hale gets 3+6+8+10+11 = 38 points. Oak's 6th place runner displaced our 4th and 5th runners.
Oak gets 1+2+4+5+7 = 19 points. Their 6th runner displaces our 4th and 5th, but their 7th runner does not.
FYI: the perfect score in a cross country meet is 15-50. This is attained by one team finishing in the top 7 places. Hopefully we can see a few of those this season!
