Class LL Boys and Girls Previews

Class LL Girls


Defending team champion- Glastonbury                  Runner up- Greenwich

2017 winner: Jenna Zydanowicz, Hall

The mark of a great program is that they never seem to be down.  Class LL and State Open champion Glastonbury graduated four of its top seven, but still managed to win the CCCs and The Wickham Invitation this year. Danbury finish only nine points behind them at Wickham which gives them a fighting chance to win its first Class LL title since 2002.

Hall was 2nd behind Glastonbury at CCCs by 11 points and should keep it close as well.  Throw in Trumbull who Danbury barely nipped at FCIACs, plus a good Ridgefield team and it all comes down which team makes the fewest mistakes.  One bad race from one runner and a team can go from 1st to 5th.  

There are some great individual runners in Class LL but Hall's Jenna Zydanowicz was impressive at the Wickham Invitational.  She went right from the gun and had a huge lead at the finish. FCIAC champion  Gabriella Viggiano of Ridgefield and her arch rival, Lauren Moore of Danbury are no slouches either. Greenwich's Mari Noble was able to outkick Moore at Wickham so she will be in the mix as well.

If Zydanowicz can duplicate her performance at Wickham, she should win.  But funny things happen at championship time and there are a host of athletes waiting in the wings for their chance at glory if the opportunity appears.
