Meet: A-AA Boys State Meet Predictions
Location: Cabell Midland High School
Date: To be held October 30, 2010
Predicted A-AA Boys Team Results
This is probably a match-up between Grafton and St. Marys. Both teams have some upward
mobility from the predicted places for most of their runners. Grafton's chances may
hinge upon the health of Zach Tennant. He was a top 20 performer last year, but he's
battled injury most of the season. If he has a good day, they'll be tough to beat. Oak
Hill can definitely be a factor in this, and if they get a really strong run from Bobby
Striker and their number five (usually Daniel Pritt), they could very well take the title.
Since I have the top five all within 26 points of each other, it's certainly possible
for any of them to walk away with the title. Ravenswood and Philip Barbour might need
a little more help to make it happen, though.
1. Grafton 108

Predicted Boys A-AA Top 25
Drew Woodford is the defending champion. He sat atop the rankings for most of the season before
being unseated by Andrew Shaffer. Andrew Shaffer is undefeated on the season, but hasn't run
against Woodford or Will Shaffer. Will Shaffer won an early-season battle against Woodford, but
Woodford won a pair of later battles. Those three certainly appear to have separated themselves
from the pack. After those three, things get very difficult. There has been some inconsistency
among just about all the rest. Bill Feeney has probably been the most consistent performer in
the group and won his Regional Meet. Scotty Treadway looked very good at the Regional, and the course
favors his running style. Evan Childers has had a few very good runs. Alec Hinerman has beaten
teammate Feeney on occasion. Charles Anderson has had some very good runs, but a lot of his best
runs came earlier in the season. Ryan Honeycutt has been strong all year. It really wouldn't be
a shock for any of these guys to make it into the top 10.
