The one team I see that got hurt the most and deserves consideration to the meet is Downers Grove Illinois south girls. They were 3rd at Roy Griak,3rd at Illinios state meet,3rd at NXN regional,their only losses all year.Who did they lose to,in all 3 meets they did not win they lost to #1 in the country Naperville North and #4 in the country Yorkville. That is it,and they are ranked #14 in the country but the committeee did not elect to advance them,instead sending 2 lesser ranked teams in their place.This is a true travesty and the reason at large selection was instituted in the first place to help teams running in stacked regionals qualify.

Still waiting on girls at-large?! Says will finish posting yesterday...

I see now that Jack Stanley has has accepted the NXN at-large bid to run in Portland. He Ran in the Footlocker Northeast race and was selected for a at-large spot in the NXN championship bypassing other runners that ran in the NXN Regionals. Strange.

Maybe someone can help me? I see that one of the at-large qualifiers is Jack Stanley of NJ. I was at the NXN northeast race and did not see his name in the Results. I did a bit of research and found that he ran that day in the northeast Footlocker race and won that race. He and his team are going to the footlocker championship. Why would he be selected as a at-large runner in the NXN championship?

If this is the case then why just call it At Large CA qualifiers? What biased was when you compare these CA teams especially the #2 team that's selected against other teams in the South, I am sure there are many teams can beat them. Please check Woodbridge CA race this year, that #2 Qualified team was not even in the sweepstake race, it was in the rated race against other schools B team. Their score added up can only be ranked #10 in sweepstake race. That is why it is biased. TX teams deserve a chance!!!'

Where are the Girls At-Large? Also, Disappointing to see other parts of the Country having the opportunity to run both NXN and Footlocker, but the Southeast has both events on the same day. Any chance this can change for the future?

NW Region is in the same situation not able to run FL and NXN because the FL West qualifier is on the same date as NXN. FL says they have to wait for CA state meet to finish which pushes the FL West to the same day as NXN. FL blames Nike.

The comments on here are a joke. Just take top two or top five and quit complaining.
chaser2002
Top two as a team or top five as an Individual Incase that wasn't clear

Are you kidding me??!! Nike meet is just a joke!!! If you are going to pick number 8 ,#13 and hilariously enough you pick #32 ?????? Wow !! Why hold a meet if you already have certain individuals to run ? Why not just send them an invitation to come and run together and save the other athletes the pain. Where did they learn Math? 6,7,8 comes before 13 and 32!!!who in their right mind does that unless its already been planned before and the whole meet is just BS.
Benbrandt03
He ran a 14:34 which is the #2 time in the country and he won the Texas 6A State Meet.

Finishing 32nd but still qualifying for NXN? Only the cream of the crop!

There are 26 runners that finished before your #1 choice in the South region and 7 that finished before your #2... i didn't even check the rest of the list!
These are good runners, but howmuch weight does NXR meets hold, not much apparently!

How rotten, they said they will telecast these races and don't. I know for a fact, I watched the girls open last year.

So many kids across the Midwest with parents ( some as firefighters that couldn't make it to the race ) that really wish they could watch too ....but nope ..only the big race I guess . Just sad :)

Called TimingMd and was told they will only have the Championship races live. I'm positive I watched my sons race live last year, but he said they only stream the Championship race.

I have definitely seen the other races in the past, not just the championship race. Such a bummer!
Doug Rodgers
Thanks for the update. I agree, I too have watched the other races in prior years.

I was at Camp Olympia in 1969,because I remember leaving Chicago and the Cubs had a 8game lead and after 2 weeks coming back and the Cubs were 8 games in second,some real choke artists. Remember running around the lake each morning,running a marathon,and the mile time trial on gravel

,and then making all state in both cross country and track,meeting my future college coach gary wieneke and having a great time,is the place still in existence?

The facility is still there. if you Google Map "O'Brien Lake, WI" and go to satellite view you can see the buildings and everything. I don't know if it's used anymore.

Went to the first Camp Olympia in WI in 1968, then we voted to stay in Elmhurst the next summer, then we went back in 1970. The camp was much tougher because of the terrain but there were also runners from all over the country there and they wanted to race and beat York no matter what. Some of them were real assholes too. We took a lot of abuse but when they ran the mile time trial (on a rolling gravel road) we placed something like 4 guys in the top 12 of the entire camp and that shut them up for the rest of the week. That made it actually enjoyable.
