Girls Teams
Notes: It's been pretty clear this Season that Saratoga Springs is the best team in the country. They've eclipsed their performances from the year before, all while running time trials on a single course all season long. Even still, their projected margin of victory in the virtual meet is ten points lower than their winning mark at NXN from 2019, a point value that is known to decrease in actual competition. This, all while running without their #2 Girl McKinley Wheeler from last year, who was out with injury, an athlete who scored only 9 points at NXN in 2019.
Cherry Creek won the XC Town Meet of Champions, and comes in next, hosting the top individual runner in the field with Riley Stewart. A big jump in the rankings can be seen from Edina. They only finished 10th at the XC Town Champs, but did so without their #3 from their State Meet, where they beat two other Nationally ranked teams. Swap her back in, and they jump all the way up to third place, even with an off day from their #2.
The big question mark is York. At the Shazam Invitational, they managed to best Naperville North by 13 points before ending their Season. Naperville went on to take 3rd overall at the XC Town Champs, so who knows how much they would have improved with another race. They're entered here with their Shazam results.
