No, only the top 5 individuals qualify and top 2 teams qualify for NXN in Oregon. Liam is head to RunningLand XC Championships in Huntsville AL in a few weeks.

@@HSECCDAD well that still something so good for him.

Sorry, not many HSE guys ran this year so we got there later for the Championship race. Only recorded the two championship races this year.

They redid the tournament format last year doing away with Semi-State. They now have one more team and 35 more individuals advance to State. 5 Regionals send 5 teams each with the top 15 Individuals not on an advancing team. So, I think the state field expanded from 208 runners to 250. I think it was to an effort to advance more smaller schools runners to state. Not sure if it actual worked.

Thanks for the kind words for Liam. Super proud of him all season! I thought Noblesville looked great. They finished 2nd and only 10 points from winning. As long as you have 25 teams qualifying from around the state, I think you are always going to get a couple of guys in the 18 range. Overall, it does a decent job of rewarding the best teams and top individuals.

@@HSECCDAD That is true, I would prefer if instead of taking just the top from each regional, they just run all the regionals like normal, then just compare all the top times and top team scores and take the best that way. Also I think they did okay, but usually there competing against Carmel and have lower points.

@@LandonPolandevery course different

⁠​⁠@@LandonPolandtimes don't matter in cross country tho, whoever is on the faster course has the advantage that way. like new prairies course vs brownsburgs would be crazy unfair.

@@yaseensaleh4646 I know every course is different. Though it also unfair to be in a regional where the top 10 individuals all run under 16. Then runners who run in an easy regionals can run barley sub 16 and make it. It should be the truly best of the best in the state.

Carmel HS has the largest enrollment in the state o f Indiana with about 5300 kids. With so many kids, hard to make most teams with limited rosters. I imagine they don't cut XC runners at their school.

Crazy that it was 12-13° warmer this year and top 3 were under the course record.

Dang, that actually sucks 😭

Thank you for the kind words. Now we just need to get our team healthy for the State tournament.

No, it’s a huge invitational meet at Terre Haute with some of the best runners and teams in the nation

@@reyskywalker8746 ahhh, wait so it is pretty much a nationals then if there teams from all over the nation

@@landonpoland5092 it’s like a a pre national race.

@@reyskywalker8746 gotcha ya, thank you

More like Nike NXR Midwest with several teams from surrounding states. Couple of top teams and individuals from around the country as well.

I will eventually post videos of JV Boys 1 and Boys Open 2 races. These two had HSE kids in them.

@@HSECCDAD yah that’s the one. Boys open 2 blue

That’s in sectionals, regionals and state. Then do 12 in the regular season, the top 7 score

@@reyskywalker8746 I ran xc in 2008 and 2009 and they've definitely changed the rules since then. Back when I ran only the top 7 participants ran in the varsity races throughout the entire season and only the top 5 were scorers

If a top level course like Lavern Gibson can handle larger fields they usually allow 12. Some smaller invites are limited to 10 varsity. The Indiana state tournament races are limited to 7 runners.

Lead and win the race and I’ll be sure to get you in the video! Good luck!

Sub 16 is in your future, why NOT at Nike?

Thanks for watching. Our family was just up vacationing in Holland, Michigan this summer. Such a wonderful area! Helen is an amazing runner!

Helen hasn't gotten the hype that some of her compatriots have gotten, but she is quick! Her knee and heel lift are both really high and her stride is long. While those aren't necessarily problems I do worry about her getting tangled up on a track if it's really bunched up with that long of a stride. Has she ever thought of triathlon? She just seems like she could dominate the bike split and we know she can run!

I guess I never looked closely at the results, but 207 guys under 17 is impressive! I graduated in 1990 and remember if you ran under 16 you were probably a top 10 guy in state. Now it could get you 62nd!! Thanks for watching!

You should be able to go to Indiana Milesplit results. That’s where I picked them up. Team scores should be listed there.

@@HSECCDAD No it being weird for me I still can't see it for some reason thank you though
