The girls have been getting the majority of the press this year in Virginia. With the dominance of the Midlothian girls program and Aurora Scott in cross country and then during indoors with the great depth of Virginia girls recording some of the nation’s top times and marks (3 girls over 5’9” in the high jump at the indoor state meet for instance), the boys had to take a backseat. However, it appears the boys’ field for this weekend’s Gus Lacy Track Classic will be slightly stronger than on the girls’ side Pictured to the right: Albemarle's Chris Best pulled out a dramatic 400m win last year at Gus Lacy over Fork Union's Jamie Reichlen. Both return in 2007, but Forest Park's Alex Feldman could spoil a win for both.
