2015 Moapa Valley Boys Cross Country Capsule

MOAPA VALLEY

League: Division I-A Sunrise

Head coach: Gary Watkins, sixth season

Returning lettermen: Four

Top athletes: Nathaniel Brill (Jr.), Zach Anderson (So.), Taylor Landini (So.), Nathaniel Thompson (So.), Guillermo Hernandez (So.), Zane Lamping (So.), Jerrick Statsny (Fr.)

Outlook: Brill finished seventh in the Southern Region meet and leads a list of four returnees for the Pirates.

"The first day of practice brought great results with six runners at a sub-20 minute pace," Watkins said. "While not state qualifier times yet, this young, athletic group of young men shows great promise and potential as we train for regionals. We expect to achieve a top-three Division I-A Southern finish as a team."
