Nike Cross National Qualifiers, from Southwest Regional
The following are the qualifiers from the Nike Cross Southwest Regional, Mesa, AZ, November 19 to the Nike Cross Nationals, Portland, OR, December 3. The top two teams and five individuals (not on a qualifying team) advance from each of the eight Nike Cross Regionals held nation-wide.
The Southwest Regional brought together the top high school teams and individuals from Arizona, Colorado, Nevada, New Mexico, and Utah .
(By state high school federation rules, high school teams and individuals can not officially participate in post-high school season competitions representing their schools. Therefore, high school teams were technically representing “clubs” (e.g., Tiger XC club) and individuals competing “unattached; but we’ll identify these clubs/individuals by the associated high schools.)
