Carroll returns as the defending Class B state champion and enters her senior year as the favorite to repeat.

Elliott had a breakthrough race at the state meet, moving up throughout the field and nearly catching star senior Samantha Moore.  Then, on the track, she showed that was no fluke, running impressive times from 400m up to 3200m.  She is one of many that could win the Class A title.

1600m: 5:07
3200m: 11:21
5K: 19:15

2025 Outlook:
It's hard to decide what Moon's strengths are.  In track, she ran very well over 400m as a freshman and then focused on the 800m and 1600m most of this year, but also had a stellar 2 Mile Run at New England's this past indoor season.  Well, during cross country she will definitely be focusing on the 5K and has a legit shot to win the Class A title.  Her team will also be in the mix to win, so she will be incentivized to score as low as possible for the Navigators.  had a solid sophomore campaign with a 4th place finish at Class A states and 17th at Festival of Champions. Her consistent performances across all distances show good range and development. The Falmouth junior will look to move up in the Class A rankings and potentially break into the top 10 at FOC.

1600m: 5:32

2025 Outlook:
Allie's best race of 2024 was her top 10 finish at FOC where she was the top Class A finisher.  Then, she went on to finish in the top 5 at both the regional and the state meet. Since then, she's made great strides on the track, improving significanty over 3200m and qualifying for New Englands in that event both indoors and outdoors.  Schmitt looks to be another runner that could be in the mix to win a wide open Class A.

2025 Outlook:
Stark-Chessa had an excellent junior season, winning the Class C South Regional and finishing 6th at Festival of Champions. However, Soren appeared to take a bit of a step back on the track, as all of these PRs are from sophomore year.  Despite this, expect Stark-Chessa to be in the mix at all of the big meets and challenge for a top spot in Class C.

2025 Outlook:
Violette has had a consistent career and will look to end it on a high note.  Last year, her 16th place finish at Festival of Champions was the peak, showing that she has the ability to compete with the best in Maine and beyond. Marina has the experience of competing for a team title and this year she hopes to be in the mix for an individual one.

Rand had a strong freshman season, finishing as the Class B North runner-up to her teammate. Her strong performance was one of the main reasons that the Trojans won the title last year. The Mt. Desert Island sophomore has tremendous upside and could potentially challenge for a Class B podium spot with another year of development.

Haley followed that up with all-regional and all-state honors, with top 7 placements in both postseason meets. Her solid range across all distances makes her a versatile competitor. The Leavitt Area senior will look to improve on her 7th place state finish and potentially crack the top 5 at Class B states in her final cross country season.

Class B #8
Class B South #7
WMC #8

3200m: 12:04
5K: 20:12

2025 Outlook:
The 800m and 1600m are clearly Lila's specialty and suggest good closing speed at the end of a 5K. If her track PRs are any indication, the Freeport senior will move up in the rankings and help the Falcons compete for a Class B title.

#24: Maya Sanzone – Marshwood High School (Grade 12)

2025 Outlook:
Kate seems to alway save her best races for last. She improved from 20th to 18th at the state meet last year and then on the track she ran 11:21 during the postseason after never breaking 12:00 during the regular season.  This track breakout is what catapulted her into our rankings.
