The last few weeks, Arkansas MileSplit has counted down the top 10 returning boys and girls teams across the state of Arkansas. Today we reach the top spots. We have combined the top boys and girls teams together because Fayetteville has both!
#1 Fayetteville Girls
The lady bulldogs of Fayetteville have 4 of the top 7 returning 5k times in the 7A and all 5 of their top runners in the top 11 in the state. With numbers like this and only a 30 second split between them, the ladies of Fayetteville will be hard to catch.

#1 Fayetteville Boys
The Bulldogs look to have one of the strongest teams in recent memory. Cameron Fischer returns for his junior year ranked as the top runner in the state. Arkansas MileSplit predicts Cameron to run sub 15 this season on the right course under the right conditions and be one of the top runners in the south. Right behind Cameron is sophomore Anton Michna. Word on the street is that Anton has been keeping up with Cameron during summer workouts. With all of Fayettevilles top 5 runners in the 7A top 11 and 4 in the top 6, watch for Fayetteville boys and girls to break out the brooms at the state meet in November!
