Boys XC Individual Rankings: 6. Nate Madeira Greely



SB: 16:58.00
Place at Regionals: 3rd 17:16.24 Class B West
Place at States: 5th 17:10.53 Class B

The Sophomore from Greely had a breakout season last fall, as we saw him emerge as the number runner towards the end of the season. Madeira proved that he was a force to be reckoned with in the WMC after his fifth place finish in the Small School race at the Manchester Invitational. Madeira ran 17:00 that day. As the postseason rolled around, Madeira proved to everybody that he could thrive under pressure. At the Western Maine Regionals, he placed third running a time of 17:16.24. The following week at the state meet, Madeira led the Rangers to a runner up finish as he placed fifth overall running a time of 17:10.53. At the New England Championships Madeira ran a personal best time of 16:58 and placed 82nd overall. Look for Madeira to be a top three runner in the WMC next fall.
