Gustavo Posada - Klein
Coach McGuire had the Klein program on a roll over the last couple of seasons. Posada is a big reason why. The rising senior has transformed from a piece of the puzzle to one of the most important pieces that makes the team complete.
Last year, he revved up his levels by jump starting his season with a 15:54 on Aug.31 at the RGV Classic Invitational. He continued to roll by dropping four other sub 16 minute 5K throughout the season. That helped get Klein back to the state meet as a team and Posada improved to a 31st place finish at state.
Although he didn't have much of an opportunity to showcase his speed in the spring due to COVID cancellations this could still be another step up for Posada. He will have had more time to focus on XC with his hungry Klein Bearkats as they look to produce a podium finish at the state meet.
