Hathaway is one of the three runners on this list that haven't finished their high school careers. What he has done so far in his high school career has been nothing short of spectacular. At the 2008 Class A xc state meet at Belfast he pushed Brunswick superstar Will Geoghegan to the limit as Geoghegan edged Hathaway by .26 seconds. (16:14.40 to 16:14.66) This past fall he had another epic battle with Geoghegan ending with the same result on a much more difficult Twinbrook Course. Geoghegan finished in 15:43 while Hathaway was three seconds back in 15:46. His time of 15:46 currently ranks as the 4th fastest time ever run on that course behind the likes of Donald Cabral, Will Geoghegan, and Greely legend Ben True. He truly had a remarkable year in cross country along with a 3rd place finish at the Festival of Champions behind, yet again, Will Geoghegan, and Mt. Blues Kelton Cullenberg. His time of 15:44.90 that day currently ranks as the 6th fastest time on the legendary Belfast course. He finished 5th at New Englands last fall posting a time of 16:19 on a day where the conditions were very slick. The Maine boys were very well represented that day as they had five guys place in the top 25. He also had very good success on the track as well. As a junior at the indoor state meet he was the runner up in the 1600 running a time of 4:27.59. He had a great outdoor season last year as his times continually dropped. At the outdoor state meet he was the runner up once again to Luke Fontaine in th 1600 this time running 4:26.34. A few weeks later he posted a huge pr in the 1600 at the New England championshps running 4:16.95 as he was the first Maine runner to cross the finish line in the event. He has continued to improve over the years, and I can not wait to see what kind of times he will run this spring.
