Note:  These predictions were made on the assumption that
the runners who performed in the Regional Meets will be
the same ones who perform at the State Meet.

Coaches, if your State Meet lineup is going to be different
than your Regional Meet lineup, please let us know so we
can adjust our Predictions accordingly.  

Example 1:  If you only ran six runners at Regionals, such as
Magnolia's Boys Team, but will be running seven at the State
Meet, please let us know who that seventh runner will be.

Example 2:  Joe and Jenny Shmoe were sick on the day of Regionals
and did not run, but they will be running at the State Meet, please
let us know that they will be running and who they are replacing.

We thank you for your help in preparing our State Meet Predictions.

Additonal Comments -- This was a tough one to call.  Any
of the first four have a very legitimate shot, and it 
wouldn't be a major upset if the fifth or sixth guy jumped
up and took the spot.  In the end, it was the experience
factor that led to Moore's selection as the favorite.  He
doesn't have the best time on the circuit this year, and 
at least one of the next three runners has beaten him this
season (Guinn), but Moore is the defending champion and is
still the man to beat.

In the team competition, it will take an amazing effort to
knock of St. Albans.  They're very strong in their front five.
Cabell Midland has the best shot at knocking them off and
are probably closer to doing so than the predicted score 
indicates.
