All-Observer honors, A look at next year

The Charlotte Observer:  "Watauga's Darby Middlebrook is the girls' runner of the year. She had the third best 5K (17:35) in the Carolinas and was N.C. 4A runner-up. She also won a conference and regional championship."
Also, Peter is First Team All-Observer: "Peter Vandenberg, Watauga, Jr.: 5K best of 15:49; N.C. 4A all-state (eighth), 4A West Region runner-up and won Northwestern 3A/4A."
And Josh and Madison are on their Second Team All-Observer.  Hannah is on their Third Team.
(Thanks NC Prep Track.)


NC Runners looks at Boys and Girls teams for next year.  Much like Coach Honea's analysis of this year's Boys results minus Seniors.  Watauga Boys have the best 4A time, 3rd in points.  Green Hope Girls again look disturbingly strong.  In any case, might as well keep running and see what happens.

No stories from the Banquet, but it must have been happy.

Foot Locker is coming up a week from Saturday at McAlpine.  Update: Look at list of runners, including additions in comments: (besides Watauga's) Frazier, Hadley, George, Greengrass, Blackmon, Rains, Engels, and other top state runners.   They should be great races, but watch the intra-NC competition too.

Update: Samantha George to NC State? Hope they cleared that with Coach Honea.  (NCPrepTrack again, N&O)
