Team ranking writeups

#3 — 1A Girls Week 1 · 157 points

Cecil Field. Five-man average 21:33.6, spread 3:19.0.
Noelle Richardson 19:36, Reese Richardson 21:22, Avery Carvell 21:37, Lauren Sauer 22:18, Isla Oles 22:55, Eleana Nowicki 23:51.

Third in the preseason, third now, and ranked here with their number one runner two minutes off. Avery Carvell ran 19:35.2 at the state meet and 21:37 at Cecil Field, which is 121.8 seconds slower against a 28.8-second expectation.

Everything else went the right way. Noelle Richardson ran 19:36, five seconds faster than her state mark on a day the class averaged half a minute slower — the best single 1A girls performance relative to expectation this weekend. Sauer took 62.7 seconds off. Reese Richardson took 20.2 off.

The 3:19.0 spread is what keeps them at 157 instead of challenging for first, and most of that spread is Carvell's bad day. A healthy Carvell puts this team at roughly 120 points and makes the top of Class 1A a three-way argument.
