Coach: Jay Lindsey (10th year)

Returning players: Boys: Junior — Kameron Souza; Sophomores — Hunter Kilgore, Marc Hachey. Girls: Seniors — Victoria Chamberlain, Anna Doyle, Molly Lindsey.

Key losses: Boys: Ben Doughty, Zach Nichols, Josh James, Cody Dennett.

Promising newcomers: Boys: Senior — Adam St. Pierre; Freshmen — Tom Quimby, Alex Hayes. Girls: Freshmen — Randi Bennett, Molly Kieltyka.

Outlook: Souza was a top-20 runner in Class A last year and will be counted on to lead the boys. Kilgore and Hachey also are coming off solid freshman seasons. Doyle, also a track and field standout, was third in the MVC girls’ meet last season. Lindsey is a four-year contributor. If the Ramblers can avoid injuries, they will have enough runners to compete for the team title on both sides at the conference meet for the first time in recent memory.

Coach’s comment: “Anna (Doyle) qualified for states last year and Molly (Lindsey) missed by one spot. I expect better things for both of them.” — Coach Jay Lindsey
