Knoxville Runner Isaac Rankin has been ranked in the class 3A individual cross country polls for most of this season. In the last rankings posted by the Iowa High School Track and Field and Cross Country Coaches Association, Rankin is 12th in class 3A which if rankings are to be believed, Coach Michael Splavec says Rankin should have a good day. But he has to run the course.

Splavec: “If you look at rankings and put a lot of value into those, he’s had a good season. He just has to go up to Fort Dodge and do it on that day.”

Rankin has a goal of a top 15 which would earn him his first career all-state designation. The class 3A boys race is Friday at 11:15. Listen for continued coverage of the State Cross Country Meet this weekend on KNIA/KRLS.
