Boyd senior Riley Nedrow is catching his stride and with the championship season here, expect to see him focused on a state title. After a mid season transfer last year, this is his first cross country season on the Boyd team. His 15:08 is the top time heading into the regional.
Waskom senior David Magdaleno and Winnsboro David Soto have both run under 16-minutes this year and could potentially challenge Nedrow.
Although not cracking 16-minutes yet, Hayden Long (Ponder) at 16:17, Grant Sims (Elysian Fields) 16:18, and Oliver Roberts (Commerce) aren't too far off and will challenge for a regional title.
The CCCAT has Boyd ranked No. 7 in the most recent poll. They have a 17:37 team average and have been one of the best 3A boys teams all season long. Commerce is also ranked No. 8 and is only one spot behind Boyd. They have the fastest team average coming into regionals with their 17:18.
While not ranked, Ponder and Bonham both have team averages under 17:31 and faster than Boyd. That figures to make an exciting race.
