How Much Will X-Factors Play Into NXN New York Girls Qualifications?
An X-factor in the NXN New York equation is New York Class B state champions Shoreham-Wading River and their individual champ, Katherine Lee, who has run undefeated this year against small-school competition. Lee, who ran 16:45.45 for 5K at the Brown Northeast Invitational, is a likely top five individual and her team could surprise for second or third.
And: can the World U20 and World Youth champion for 800m in Sammy Watson qualify for Nike Cross Nationals? The 2:02 half miler improved from 34th state/38th Feds finish in 2015 to 6th state/3rd Feds finish this fall to make herself a prime contender for nationals qualification.
