According the XCNation website, the 2011 Albemarle High School Boys Cross Country Team is ranked #18 in the NATION. Congratulations men, but don't let it go to your head, you have a lot of work ahead of you. Pre-Season polls don't mean a whole lot if you can't back it up in a meet. [edit: Reminder from Buz - the only poll that matters is the LAST one].

"The spirit, the will to win, and the will to excel are the things that endure. These qualities are so much more important than the events that occur". Vince Lombardi
