2017 NY Girls XC Preview Breakdown

Following a year of big finishes, some new faces and teams are pushing to the fore in 2017.

There is a familiar large Hornet on top of the roost in Class A, but the overall competition in the sections will be the closest in years.

After big graduation losses throughout Class B, a familiar favorite is likely feeling devilishly good.

The Class C race appears set for another close encounter at States as the new Panther rulers try to stay in the lead.

Last year's States battle between Greenwich and Maple Grove could be set for round two between the intact squads of the Witches and Red Dragons, but some other teams want to join the action.

Notre Dame aims for its 4th straight CHSAA title, but the Firebirds of Kellenberg are trying to soar to the top.

Judgment Day will be coming to the PSAL again this year as Benjamin Cardozo goes for a repeat title and Brooklyn Tech tries to engineer an upset.

The AIS may have another season of surprises prepped to spring on us as a strong group of runners return for another big year.
