Oh, if the 1st-2nd-1st were consecutive I understand. I assumed they were spread over several years.

Once in a lifetime 3 times.Oh, if the 1st-2nd-1st were consecutive I understand. I assumed they were spread over several years.
How do I explain it? An extraordinary coach revived a program that had been gone for years. He had an excellent coach at the middle school helping bring the sport back. A group of extraordinary athletes were convinced to take up running. The outstanding coaching they received, along with a two time individual state champion led to the three state appearances. Then the coach moved on. That was that.How do you explain that? 1st, 2nd, 1st, yet only 3 times advancing past regional? I'm just curious on your view on this.

All this D2 talk got me curious about the D3 boys numbers since there are some traditionally strong programs in the field.

So they were consecutive? I was actually anticipating your answer. But for some reason I thought the three were spread out over several years and I wondered what caused them to win, 2nd, win with years of no appearances in between. Sorry for the confusion. That is a great run.

Thank you. Sorry for the misguided questions. That is really impressive. Did the coach get out of coaching or move on in some other way?

When you can achieve that sort of success at multiple schools and multiple divisions you must really know your stuff. I enjoy seeing those kind of people people spread their insight.

"Cs get degrees," so I'll take that B-, thank you very much.Mr. Slippery not a great chart. The teacher gives you a B- .
I tried to copy and paste from Excel, and the format doesn't translate. I tried the insert table feature from the toolbar in the reply box and filled in the cells, and it didn't work either.
Bottom line was I learned what I wanted to learn from researching the information. As they say in those quick buck investment opportunity ads, "past performance is not indicative of future results," so Maplewood's 38 trips and 7 state titles won't give this year's edition of the "Goons," "Gophers," or whatever nickname they use these days, a head start in this race. However, I never bothered to look before at just how many times some of the blue-blooded small school programs in this year's field have made it to state. It's impressive stuff. My school used to think it was something special in the early 2000s after making 5 state trips in 7 years and winning 6 district titles in 8 years. Some programs would be impressed by that period, and other programs would look at it and say, "hold my Gatorade..."
