We breakdown the top 12 girls individuals heading into the Foot Locker West Regional at Mt. SAC. MileSplit will be on-site with coverage!
| Rank | Athlete/Team | Last Result | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|
1 N/R | 4th @ NXN Northwest | Arguably the best freshmen girl XC runner in the nation. Montana state champ who has defeated last year's Foot Locker West Regional champ Morley 3 times. Bypassed NXN after qualifying for this meet. | |
2 N/R | 5th @ NXN Northwest | The defending Foot Locker West Regional champ and 4-time Montana state champ Morley has the most experience and credentials in the field, but can she top the freshmen Hill that has had her number all season long? A top 3 Montana sweep is very likely for sure. | |
3 N/R | 6th @ NXN Northwest | Trying to follow in big sister Makena's footsteps. Makena is attempting to become a 3-time Foot Locker finalist, while Bryn could potentially become a 4-time finalist if she qualifies on Saturday. Ran under 17 minutes for 3 miles at Missouri State Meet and had qualified to run individually at NXN, but opted out to run at Foot Locker West. | |
4 N/R | 1st @ California State Meet-D4 | Just missed nationals last December with a 11th place finish at Foot Locker West, the Cali D4 state champ does not expect to be in that position again and finish deep inside the top 10. Dipped under 17 minutes at the Southern Section Finals on Mt. SAC's 2.93 mile course. | |
5 N/R | 13th @ NXN Northwest | Been on the national stage every fall with a 15th place finish at NXN as frosh, 11th place at NXN as soph, and 33rd at Foot Locker Nationals as junior. Can the Oregon state runner-up punch another ticket to Balboa Park and race nation's best? | |
6 N/R | 2nd @ California State Meet-D3 | Took a photo finish loss in D3 state race last week and missed being among individual qualifiers to NXN. Qualifying for Foot Locker Nationals would be a nice consolation prize. | |
7 N/R | 3rd @ California State Meet-D3 | A 4:55 1600 & 10:18 3200 girl on the track, Coscia has ran two strong races at Woodward Park this year including 17:38 5K PR at Cali state meet. Runner-up at Mt. SAC two weeks ago in Southern Section race . | |
8 N/R | 4th @ California State Meet-D2 | D2 Southern Section champ, the sophomore was has been one of the best underclassmen runners in Cali. All-Region (21st place) last year at Foot Locker West. | |
9 N/R | 1st @ Nevada State Meet | 2-time Nevada state cross country champion who has pretty good wheels with a 2:14 open 800 PR. Will need that to close for a top 10 finish. | |
10 N/R | 34th @ NXN Northwest | Don't let her 34th place finish at NXN Southwest fool you. She finished 38th in last year's race before grabbing a spot to San Diego and nationals with 8th place finish in the FL West Regional. | |
11 N/R | 4th @ Idaho State Meet | Returning Foot Locker finalist (6th), who was 18 seconds faster than her state race from a year ago. 5:01 miler on the track. | |
12 N/R | 2nd @ Oregon State Meet-5A | Strong season of races from the Eugene based runner including a state runner-up finish. |
