\nChamplain Valley Union (VT) runner Autumn Eastman's blistering 17:40 5k win by about a minute at the Manchester Invitational (NH) makes her a lock as a national top 25 runner and puts her in the conversation with former two-time national Footlocker champion Erin Sullivan, NCAA cross country champion Tara Chaplin and Olympian Judi St. Hilaire as the greatest high school runner in Vermont history.

\nWouldn't you say that she'd need to win at least 1 national title (probably at NXN these days) before you can compare her to Sullivan?

\nCoach Roy ... I know your heart is in the right place about Sydney Badger. But the FOURTH place finisher in that race, Bethan Knights, was probably one of the last two that I left out. She's probably 31 or 32. Tenth place in that race, great as it was, just isn't good enough.

\nI have seen one result for Josette. It was a win and she ran about 18:50, which I took to be a conservative effort. That's fine. It wasn't easy to shoe-horn all of the deserving girls (or boys) into 30 slots. I suspect that when we see Josette run hard some place, she will find her way back into the Top 30. There are a few other examples like that. Two weeks from now it will be different.

\n
\nThat was me reacting to your assertion that the rankings are a prediction of how the season is going to end. Right now, based on her XC results alone, I don't know that you would rank Josette in the top 30. However, given her 4:41 1600 and what that indicates about how far she has come as a runner, I would bet top 30 for her this fall.

\nI thought it was silly to hold a place for her in the rankings all that time. If I find out she's planning to do cross country at the end of the season, I'll find a spot for her again.","date_added":"Sep 26th 2013, 5:58pm","nest":0,"liked":false,"member":{"wally_id":"1082747","email_settings":"4294967295","email":"dbind4@aol.com","address":"DougB","gender":"u","member_id":"44418","member_name":"DougB","avatar_location":"av-44418.jpg","avatar_type":"upload","avatar":"\/\/www.runnerspace.com\/forum\/uploads\/av-44418.jpg"},"can_delete":false,"item_id":180352,"item_type":"news","pb_image":"\/\/www.runnerspace.com\/forum\/uploads\/av-44418.jpg","pb_title":"DougB","pb_url":"profile.php?member_id=44418","pb_url_dns":"https:\/\/DougB.runnerspace.com\/","pb_wally_id":"1082747"},"868076":{"pb_id":"9184","pb_type":"members","likes":"0","parent_id":"0","pid":"868076","comment_id":"868076","member_id":"9184","comment":"

\nJust saw the new top-30 rankings and no Cain listed, so presumably there's been some word (or assumption) that she won't race XC?
