52 valid votes were tabulated for Mocorunning's XC County Championship Poll. Below are the composite results of that poll.

1. Abigail Green, Walter Johnson 2018 403 Poll Points She is the reigning county champion, and her time from last year's county meet is over 40 seconds faster than the next returning girl. This year she could become just the fourth Montgomery County girl since 2006 to run under 18 minutes in a 5K - and she is still only a junior.

2. Virginia Brown, B-CC 2019 364 Poll Points She quickly rose up the ranks in Montgomery County last year, culminating in a fourth-place finish at the county championships. Her 18:45.70 time was fifth-fastest by a freshman on Mocorunning's "Since 2006" leaderboard. She missed the state meet due to an injury, but after a solid return on the track last spring she should be ready to roll in 2016.

3. Zoe Nuechterlein, B-CC 2017 263 Poll Points The second of B-CC's three-headed monster this season, Nuechterlein also had a breakout season in 2015. She finished first at the team's scrimmage a few weeks ago, and combined with Brown and Michaela Peterson the B-CC girls might have the firepower to win states for the first time since 2012.

4. Julia Reicin, Winston Churchill 2017 250 Poll Points Reicin has been remarkably consistent throughout her high school cross country career, finishing 13th, 12th and 10th at the state championships in her first three seasons. She had the best track season of her career last spring, hinting at even bigger things to come from the Churchill senior this season.

5. Nandini Satsangi, Poolesville 2019 173 Poll Points She finished not too far off of her freshman counterpart Brown at last year's county championships, where her time of 18:57.60 put her eighth on Mocorunning's "Since 2006" freshman leaderboard. She then impressed with a second-place finish at the 3A State Championships. She should contend for the state title again in 2016.

6. Heather Delaplaine, Damascus 2019 162 Poll Points Another girl who broke out in a big way during the 2015 season, Delaplaine was not too far off of Satsangi at the 3A State Championships where she finished fourth. After a solid track season in which she captured her first state title in the indoor 4x800, she could break into the top ten at this year's county championships.

7. Sofia Zarate, Northwest 2017 149 Poll Points Since her debut in 2013, Zarate has improved her standing at the county, regional, and state meets in each of her first three seasons of high school cross country. A fourth straight season of across-the-board improvement may be in store for Zarate.

T-8. Katriane Kirsch, Walter Johnson 2017 147 Poll Points Kirsch has been a consistent driving force behind the Wildcats' three straight state titles, finishing 16th or higher at the state championships in all three of her high school seasons. This year she will be the only remaining member from the 2013 squad that started it all as they go for their fourth straight state championship.

T-8. Maya Jacobson, Quince Orchard 2017 147 Poll Points Her seventh place finish at last year's 4A West Regional set her up for an even better track season, where she finished fifth and eighth at the indoor and outdoor state championships 3200. She will have the opportunity to become the fourth Quince Orchard girl since 2012 to crack the top 20 at the state championships this year.

10. Yasmine Kass, Paint Branch 2018 131 Poll Points After finishing 22nd at last year's county championships, she broke into the upper level of runners in the state with her 5:05.67 1600 and 2:21.40 800. If that success translates to the XC course she could make this prediction look conservative come mid-October.
