#11 Ares Epps

I might be too high on Epps, and I might be too low, but I think he's a monster talent and could bode well in his first summer training session with an awesome Green Hope squad.  He really hasn't run much XC with 9 races total on his profile.  He does hold a PR of 16:14 from the Mideast region last season narrowly making the state meet placing 20th, and then taking 22nd at the state meet the week after.  In Epps first track season with the Falcons he ran 1:56 and 4:19.  He was on the 4x800 squad with GH both indoors and outdoors that won state titles.  He also was 9th at the state meet individually in the 1600.  He also was an All-American in the 4x800 and 4xMile with the Falcons at NBON.  I think Epps has the potential to be GH's top guy this season or he could be their #5.  But I think the talents definitely there if he adjusts well to a new summer training program.
