Highland Invitational (UT) Ratings estimate

First good sized and competitive meet of the season that I've looked at:

Highland Invitational @ Sugarhouse Park (short layout) - Salt Lake City, Utah (2.9 miles)

These are ROUGH estimates... but 200.0 ~ 14:15

A pair of nationally elite athletes in each race, and multiple US Top-120 or SW Top-15 teams as well. For most athletes and schools, this was the first meet of the year, though some did race last week. Team score notes (not that I take team standings in meets this early to mean anything at all...) -

Boys = 1. Bingham 74; 2. Davis 80; 3. Timpanogos 144; 4. Ogden 158; 5. Riverton 179; 6. Westlake 189

Girls = 1. Davis 62; 2. Bingham 116; 3. Timpanogos 144; 4. Park City 171; 5. Ogden 196; 6. Jordan 201; 7. Mountain Crest 208; 8. Skyline 209; 9. Lehi 213

(note that last year, the boys race was won by Ben Saarel in 14:49.1 and the girls by Sarah Feeney in 17:36.7)

It has begun

The countdown has begun, starting with the US#81-120 teams and Southwest #6-15 teams posted today on DyeStat.

A new region #6-15 will get posted every weekday this week and next week, and US#41-80 next Monday (August 26), leading up to the US Top-40 and Regional Top-5 on next Thursday, August 29.

Today's rankings probably have some surprises for some folks... particularly the national rankings, where one of the five best programs in the nation is sitting just outside the top100 this year, and several other nationally recognizable programs are in the 81-120 group as well.

Enjoy!

(by the way, a note for reference on how good these #81-120 programs are... think of them like teams that can compete with the bottom third of NXN qualifiers, and even beat them on occasion. They are still very good teams, and it wouldn't be surprising if some of them end up in the top 30 at some point of the season, particularly if the teams get transfers or impact freshmen that weren't factored into the rankings)
