TES Boys XC second place plaque |
On November first we competed in the State Meet. Unfortunately we lost and came second. Our nemesis Woodberry Forest beat us. On our team Steven J. came just short of being All-State, coming in the top twenty. He was one spot away, he finished twenty first. I came third, coming behind Alex L. from Fork Union, and Hale R. from Potomac. Although we did not win, we were happy with the results. If you asked anyone on the team in the beginning of the season, you would have gotten a negative response, but we surprised ourselves and we are proud of ourselves for accomplishing second place. Our goal next year is to rebound and finish first as a team.
On the girls side, they came fifth. They had Molly B. winning the meet for her second time in a row. She finished in front of second place by almost a minute! Katie B. also had a great performance, coming in second for the team and fourth overall. Both of them were All- State, top twenty. In the comments tell me how your state meet went?

As a person who has never been to a running state meet, I wonder if you might offer a description of how the state meet differs from other types of meets, and how the team preparation changes for state-level competitions.
