National Preseason XC Rankings - Boys Individuals

Grant "All he does is win" Fisher of Grand Blanc High School in Michigan is back to win some more for his senior year of cross country. A dual athlete in the fall (splits time with soccer), the reigning Foot Locker Nationals champion Fisher comes into the cross country season as the preseason #1 ranked boys runner in the country after a sensational spring on the track including a 4:02 mile and 8:51 two mile performance in wins against the best competition in the nation. With so many juniors among the All-Americans at the Foot Locker Nationals, Fisher has a talented chase pack returning trying to knock him off his throne as King at Balboa Park.
