Easterns States Preview: The Champions Are Back To Defend

WATCH LIVE: MANHATTAN COLLEGE INVITATIONAL

BEGINS AIRING ON OCTOBER 13 AT 8:00 AM

Only a select few have made it to the top of the podium here. It's one of the most coveted spots in the sport of high school cross country. 

The Eastern States Championship race at the Manhattan College Invitational has typically been a mid-season stepping stone for teams and individuals that have gone on to win state and national titles down the line.

The year 2024 looks to be no different, as the Northeast's top runners in both genders look to hold off the fields and the team battles are only heating up.

It would look like the top team entrants in both genders have a shot at taking down the course team averages, so we're on record watch.

We break down the best of the best at both the individual and team level below, with the varsity letter race previews coming out tomorrow.

Join us all week, as we dig in to the Manhattan College XC Invite presented by HOKA.
