Great day SMSXC! Combine team champions. Boys team champs. Girls 2nd place just one point out of 1st.

The longer I coach, the more I realize that the secret to being a great coach isn't designing cutting edge training, it's the ability to repeatedly and consistently avoid doing dumb stuff.

Great start to the 2026 XC season the Olathe East XC Classic. Boys were team champs and girls were runner ups. 30 total medals. Luke Jansen was individual champ in the boys race. Ella Wiebe was top girl finisher in 3rd.

The hot streak continues! 🔥
Shawnee Mission South senior Max Larson just capped off a historic distance campaign on Saturday, setting the new 5000m state record. At the inaugural KRONOS Distance event, Larson outlasted the lights, running 14:37.22 to break Lane Boyer’s (Fredonia) record of 14:46 from 2007.
Larson had some help early from Trinity Academy’s Caleb Tofteland (14:50) and Mill Valley’s Dalamar Read (15:05), but eventually pulled away by 13 seconds, becoming the first Kansas boy to break 14:40 on the track.
The Tulsa-bound senior isn't done yet, as he'll "step down" to the Mile, heading to the @KCMetroMile with a 4:09.45 1600m PB.
