I would say sub 17 minute 3 miles is above average for Louisiana high school XC.


I think this is spot on. I had naturally better foot speed (ran the 400m and 800m during track season) but got trained up to a sub-17 3 mile / 17:30 5k during XC. I was just about average, maybe slightly above, compared to the rest of the guys. OP's son should stick with it if he likes it and he can probably do well with good coaching.
