They all ran awesome. I'm very pleased with the way we're running right now. Now we just have to keep it going.

Well have to wait for the regional, I guess.

We were hoping for a top-10 finish. We were 26th a year ago, so this is a big improvement.

When I saw Brendan come over the hill in first place, I thought the two other runners who had been with him went the wrong way or something. He was all alone.

For most of the race (Murphy) was fourth or fifth. He broke out the last half-mile and passed three runners. Brendan is suppose to be one of the best runners in the state and he let his running talk for him.

The lineup can always change as things develop. It's never set in stone.

It was a typical Brendan Murphy race. He passed four or five runners in the last straight-away. He's still not convinced he can run with the leaders.

Every runner seemed to make the right move at the right time.

Right now Binder has that sixth spot in our lineup. He's another very committed kid who works very hard.
