5A Boys Pre-Season Rankings #2
After adding another title to their nest last Fall, Flowery Branch will face some challenges this season to replace 4 of their top 7. Coach Sorrells has a way of developing runners in his program, and the Falcons had the fastest team average for returners in both the 1600/3200 last Spring so don't think they are going away. Sr Miguel Martinez returns to assume the top spot after making All-State in XC placing 10th at State last Fall. Hoping to tighten up their patented pack-running is Grant O'Callaghan, Shawn Olmstead and Jackson Gunby. (pic via GHSA)
