More Wendy's preview

NC Runners previews runners and teams to watch.  Lots of Watauga.  (Meet page)

• Of course, they mention the Champ and Josh, but also "watch out for Peter Vandenberg, who has been battling an injury this season."
• Boys -- " If you want a dark-horse candidate, how about Watauga, whose boys have been a little banged up but also working hard; they have the talent to crash the top-5 party here."
• Girls -- " . . . Watauga, . . .  round out the contenders, and any of them could either sneak into the top 3 or finish 9th depending on how they run."  (And on SAT test-taking.)
• It's too bad that Anna McBride and the Providence  girls will be in the Open race instead of the Invitational.  There's still plenty of competition (to understate it).

My alarm's set for 5:00am.
