Obviously we'd like to keep our streak going. I think we've got a good chance at that. There are four pretty evenly-matched teams from what I can tell in the results I've seen. Any one of those four could win the meet and any of the four could be left out. Nathan has been on the last three teams and Wade the last two, so we've got the leadership up front to know what it takes to be successful.

Right now the biggest difference between us and West Sioux are our second and third runners, because our second and thirds are over 30 seconds faster than their second and third. We feel pretty good about how we're doing heading towards districts. West Sioux had beaten us earlier in the year and we've beaten them twice in a row now. But we can't ease up, because they'll be competitive and right there with us and they'll beat us if we do.

We had a good run out of all three of those guys. Eric especially has been running better. He's running with pain from surgery he had in the spring and we've had him biking and his times are starting to drop.
