These are subjective rankings (not computer generated) they take into account returning team rankings, team rankings in the 1600 and 3200 from outdoor track, and a school's "Improvement Rating." Improvement Rating is a metric developed by researching the improvement in a team's final place at State from 2011-2013. Each category is given rank points and added up coming to a final point total. Some squads made up for high point totals, getting ranked higher by virtue of number of returners (top 7) and by fastest returning XC team average. Not all XC runners do Track (Soccer mostly) which can affect Outdoor team rankings, but generally not the top 5-7 teams)
3A Boys Pre-Season #4- Westminster
Only 2 return this season from the top 7 from the 2013 AA Champs
The Cats haven't been in this position in a while facing some challenges. Its going to be a while before anyone really knows their potential except their coaching staff. With East Jackson and Oconee's star rising, it seems like Westminster is in an eclipse, but never count them out as has been proven for years...Graham Huff is one the top returners in the state having placed 3rd last Fall (pr 16:56 McAlpine Park) Their 2-6 are comprised of 4 juniors so their experience is a bonus.
