20. The Bromfield School
The Girl’s Preseason list starts with The Bromfield School, a program steeped in history with great cross country and distance running. Despite its relative small size, Bromfield has produced some of the best Massachusetts runners of all time in Lynne Jennings, Arianna Lambie, and Emily Jones.
After winning the Division 3C race last year, they come back this year with a lot of talent as well as some holes in the lineup. Up front they have one of the state’s top returning runners in Rosie Bradley. She was fourth at the Divisional race last year and will look to challenge for the win this season. Look for rising sophomore Abbey Wool to make a jump this year to help up front.
Bromfield is strong through their fourth runner but will need big improvements from whoever earns their fifth spot to round out their score. If they can do that, they’ll have a shot at another division title. Below is a look at their projected top 5:
