Alex Aafedt headlines a very strong returning cast of runners for Evergreen in 2015. Colorado Track XC file photo by Alan Versaw.
Author's Note: With the resumption of indoor track and field tonight, this will be the last of the series taking glimpses at next year's cross country leagues. I trust you've enjoyed the series, but it is time again to turn the focus to track and field.
There's trouble in them thar hills!
As the rest of Jeffco 4A surveys the scene for next year, they cannot help but notice the hand that Rob Wright's Evergreen Cougars hold coming into next fall. Evergreen was a bit on the young side this fall, and that all begins to pay off next fall.
Evergreen figures as a substantial favorite in Jeffco 4A, with the most like competition coming from Golden, D'Evelyn, Green Mountain, and Littleton.
Everything points toward a typically solid, and perhaps a bit above average, year for Jeffco 4A in 2015.
