Sam Affolder (Carthage, NY)
Affolder, whose older brother Noah is one of the top runners in the country, was able to make some noise of his own in 2015 as his 14:58 3-mile was the best by a frosh throughout the season. The Carthage (NY) product was the top 9th grader at the New York Fed Championships by over 34 seconds, so no doubt that the Affolder pipeline will continue for several years to come.
