Top 20!

The Top 20 Returners from a season ago.  These places were based on the best available times from a season ago.

South View's boys stayed up front in 1999, but will graduation and the opening of a new high school lead to the end of the Tiger Run?

Cumberland Co. - There are many questions heading into the Fall 2000 campaign for the high school cross country teams in the Mid-South Conference:

Will Nathan Adams' (E.E. Smith) return, after a season ending injury in 1999 result in another dominating performance?

• Can any young lady challenge Terry Sanford's Ashley Johnson?  If so, will it be another Lady Bulldog?
• Speaking of the Bulldogs, can any women's team challenge their supremacy in the Mid-South?  What about Douglas Byrd?  Pine Forest?  South View?
• And while on the topic of team titles, is South View's run over for its men's team?  Or will they be able to overcome major losses to graduation and Jack Britt High School?
• Will Mazarick Park be ready and safe for the Fall schedule?  What about the conference championship?

The answers to these questions will not be found here.  But as the season progresses, the picture should become clear.  Stay tuned...
