Gray-New Gloucester Cross Country

Coach: Adam Zukowski (sixth year)

Last year's results: Boys — 12th in Western B; Girls —12th in Western B.

Returning athletes: Boys: Senior — Dan Rowe; Juniors — Will Shafer, Ian Marshall; Sophomore — Nick Cavanaugh; Girls: Juniors — Audrey Garcia; Grace Ferguson; Sophomore — Makala MacLean.

Key losses: Elizabeth Pflugradt.

Promising newcomers: Boys: Seniors — Gabe Coleman, Hunter Hodgdon; Junior — Ben Coleman; Sophomore — Lucas Nickerson Freshman — Ben Garcia, Austin Cross; Girls: Freshman — Sam Shampine.

Outlook: Competing in the loaded Western Maine Conference is always a challenge, especially with such an inexperienced team. At least the Patriots can start with one of the top runners in the conference in Shafer. Improvement from Marshall and Cavanaugh could help. Garcia leads a rebuilding girls team.

Coach's comment: "The boys could get one of the last spots going to states, especially with the young guys helping out a veteran team." Coach Adam Zukowski
