Elmwood's Emerick took us out really fast for the first half. I tucked in behind Peterson and Thompson. We were together till about the 1.5 and they pulled ahead about 10 seconds and Emerick came back to me. I went with him up the last hill on the backside and surged when I hit flat land. He had no answer and I finished 3rd behind the two guys I believe will battle it out for the win next weekend. I felt I ran patient and smarter today than I have in the past. I dropped 22 seconds off last year's time on this course and beat the guy who finished 4th at last year's state meet.
I have a week of hard work ahead and hopefully will have a top 10 medal around my neck this time next Saturday!

Great job again Jordan.
Be patient, be calm and you will surprise yourself at state.
You are CERTAINLY capable of top 10, but don't limit yourself.
Good job this weekend!
I think you have a great shot at top-5. Just run smart and pound that third mile.
Good luck at State this weekend!
