Chiles (Tallahassee)

Cecil Field, and the best actual performance by a 3A girls team this weekend. Average 19:45.4, spread 1:52.0. Emma-Claire Tanenbaum 18:48, Kaia Ables 18:59, Charlotte Sikes 20:04, Chloe Molen 20:16, Madeline Brockmeier 20:40, then Savannah Stanley 21:18 and Katherine Baker 21:44.

Their returning six projected to a 19:56.6 average. They raced to 19:45.4 — eleven seconds a runner faster than their own November baseline, in August, on a neutral course. Every scorer who ran state came back and ran. That is the cleanest evidence any team in this class produced.

Tanenbaum and Ables 11 seconds apart at the front, a 65-second gap to third, and then three runners inside 36 seconds. Fourth in Florida overall, and the highest-ranked 3A girls team that has actually raced.

Cecil Field, three points behind Fleming Island. Average 17:13.2, spread 2:30.0. Jonathan Kiros 15:47, Jack Nottingham 16:52, Emerson Gandy 17:26, Noah Olson 17:44, Camp Andrews 18:17, Lowell Mick 18:54.

Kiros converted to 15:47, tied with Belen's Jack Michalak for the fourth-fastest 3A mark of the weekend, and Chiles has the second-widest spread in this top ten. Their returning four projected to a 17:01.1 average; they raced to 17:13.2, so unlike the Tallahassee team above them they did not gain on their own baseline.

Chiles and Fleming Island finished 8th and 9th here and raced each other at Cecil, where Fleming Island won it. Three points is inside the noise of a single runner's day.

19:45.4 average with the best front pair of any team that raced: Emma-Claire Tanenbaum 18:48 and Kaia Ables 18:59, ninth and seventeenth in the merged field. Then 65 seconds of nothing to Charlotte Sikes at 20:04, and a 1:52 spread.

Projected second in 3A at 65 points, ranked fourth overall, and now looking up at a Bishop Kenny team it has not raced.

Cecil Field, 19:45.4, spread 1:52, and the tightest relationship on this page: they beat Creekside at Cecil on the sixth runner and are ranked behind them. Emma-Claire Tanenbaum 18:48.0 and Kaia Ables 18:59.0 are the best one-two of any team in the top four; Charlotte Sikes 20:04.0, Chloe Molen 20:16.0 and Madeline Brockmeier 20:40.0 are the reason the board reads it the way it does.

Both teams are entered at the Horse Park. This gets settled on Saturday.

Kaia Ables ran 18:59.0 at Cecil Field and did not score on Saturday; her Cecil mark is still in the five below, and so is Madeline Brockmeier's 20:40.0. The season averages 19:47.0, the fourth-best figure in Florida, and the virtual race has them third. Ponte Vedra and Lourdes beat them in Ocala, and the race wins. With Ables in the five this is a different team.

Their Cecil Field run, with Kaia Ables at 18:59.0 and Tanenbaum at 18:48.0, was better by 41 seconds a runner, and the season averages 19:47.0, the fourth-best in the state. The virtual race has them fifth on that. The Horse Park had them behind Bishop Moore, Creekside, Ponte Vedra, Episcopal and Lourdes, and the race wins. Ables did not score on Saturday; with her in the five, this is a different team.

Kaia Ables 18:59.0 and Emma-Claire Tanenbaum 19:00.3 are the best one-two in 3A, and the season average of 19:47.0 is fifth in Florida. Seventh, because Bishop Moore, Ponte Vedra and Episcopal all beat them in Ocala and none of the four has raced since. The Niceville rematch has now been rained out once.

Second at Cecil Field by two points to Niceville 4A in August, sixth at the Horse Park with 252.

Creekside, Ponte Vedra and Episcopal beat Chiles that day, and all three have raced since, so under the usual team rule the result no longer orders them. Fourth on figure.
