Here is the good part:
Albemarle head man Buz Male will field arguably the greatest team of his career this fall, an impressive statement considering he has been coaching for almost 40 years. The Patriots were third in Group AAA last fall, the second-highest finish in school history, and have their sights set on their first-ever state title as six of their varsity seven are back from last year’s squad.
The good news is that Male will have the area’s top returner, All-State senior Ben Deal, 12th in Group AAA last year and the No. 6 returnee for all of Virginia. It gets better for Male though, as Deal’s supporting cast includes fellow senior Adam Visokay (19th in 2010), who was the breakout story of the state last spring.
Visokay enjoyed a magical track season, which culminated in a dramatic 9:09 victory at the state 3200-meter run, a stunning performance that instantly made him one of the favorites for this fall. Rounding out the top four are senior Chris Springer, a sub-10:00 two-miler, and sophomore sensation Ryan Thomas, whose personal best times of 4:23 (1600) and 1:57 (800) ranked him amongst the top five freshman in the entire country last spring.
