Wilsonville Night Meet OR ratings

Lincoln boys and the Sunset girls were the top teams at the annual Wilsonville Night Meet, a quick and fast 3k race ran in flights by athlete class. The biggest news out of the meet was that Sunset has a very good freshman girl (Ember Stratton) to compliment their already established front trio, giving them arguably the Northwest’s strongest team through four runners (though Camas and possibly Bozeman might disagree). The other big news was the showdown between several of the top senior boys in the state, where West Linn’s Ollar twins finished first and third with Forest Grove’s Murimi Nyamu edging Grayson for second with Roman securing the win.

A quick look at the top boys teams scores in the mass merge: 1. Lincoln 61, 2. Sunset 146, 3. Marist 189, 4. West Linn 193, 5. Wilson 209, 6. Lakeridge 216, 7. Grant 220, 8. Aloha 234

Here are the top girls team scores in the mass merge: 1. Sunset 86, 2. Aloha 118, 3. Grant 124, 4. Franklin 128, 5. Lincoln 165, 6. West Linn 198

As you might notice, the Sunset girls held out their returning top 7, though freshman Ember Stratton will certainly be a scorer for them this fall based on the time posted here.

Portland Catholic Preview OR ratings

Jesuit won both sides of the fourth annual Portland Catholic Preview, with performances at least as good as hoped for the Crusader squads. Times aren’t comparable to previous years as this meet was run on a different course this time around.

 

On the boys side, Jesuit edged Central Catholic 25-32 in what essentially amounted to a dual meet between the two teams. Crusader sophomore Joshua Schumacher won the 4k race in 12:22.22 over senior teammate Max Hite (12:41.28), with CC senior Zack Lavier finishing third in 12:51.78. Valley Catholic’s Jacob Godshalk was the first finisher from a different school as he was ninth in 13:09.69, just edging out Central Catholic’s #5 runner. As you will see, it was a competitive battle within the #3-7 packs, but Jesuit seems to have the stronger front runners at least on this day. Unfortunately, these two teams won’t face off again until the 6A State Championship on October 31.

 

In the girls race, it was another two team race with Jesuit winning by a larger margin over St. Mary’s Academy 20-40. The interesting note here is that Jesuit’s dominance was established with a trio of freshmen running as their top three, with that third freshman only 5 seconds behind SMA’s Lacey Conner, a Top-10 returner from state last year. It will be very interesting to see how this Crusader freshman class compares to the rest of the state, and Jesuit’s hopes of keeping pace with Summit and Sunset this fall. By the way, the top runner from a third team was Central Catholic’s Hannah Lavier who finished #13 in 16:34.38. It is also notable that Jesuit held out their top three returners, which seemed to be a trend for the top Oregon girls programs in this opening week.
