These ranknings usually pop up soon after the race. Does anyone have the team scores if each runner scored for his/her HS state?

1. Kenya.
Kenya won for sure, Canada did well. Through 3, Utah looks the best. CA and TX will probably be up there.
But Kenya and Canada are countries, it is like comparing Seattle to Michigan.
How did the Kenya v US turn out?

Br Comm wins 1 3 4 5 9 = 22
However, this is a biased 'sample'. Here is a test: can you tell why that is the case?

Lets crowd source this.
Here is a link to the spreadsheet I used to score the meet by region in my other thread. I don't know the state where each guy went to HS and I don't have the time to find all of them.
If you follow the link you should be able to edit the document. I don't think you have to sign in. Feel free to add the HS state for anyone that you know.

I'll set up the spreadsheet to do the scoring later tonight.

These are the All- Americans who graduated from High School in the United States. I took Batty and Shields out because they are older that Red Shirt Seniors.
Texas is the first to get 3 across the line, and I know Dohner was 51st (he would prob be their 4th) but I think the Lone Star State's five would be way back. Chad Hall would be California's 3 at 44th. Andrew Beberick is prob idiana's 3 at 55th with Mayhew at 64th. Its prob a battle between those three states (Texas, California, and Indiana)
Beberick is from colorado, my mistake, Poore from indiana at 70th though
Utah's top 5 would include at least three, maybe four mormons older than redshirt seniors... However if you include them they prob win hands down, definitely if you just count american hs grads.

6 - Luke Puskedra - '08 Grad
14 - Miles Baty
22 - Rex Shields
58 - Jared Ward - '07 grad maybe
63 - Brian Mckenna
Utah - 163
Texas - 234 at worst, (Lowe, Lutz, Connor, Dohner, Tunningley)
California - 221 at worst,(Estrada, Fernandez, Hall, Peterson, Moussa)
You realize Utah only has like 3 million people, right? That's very impressive.
Indiana:
Fout 32
Bayer 39
Mayhew 64
Poore 70
Medrano 91
Moldovan 93
Shields 112
Total: 296
Colorado:

111 (Perry)
158 (Kincaid)

192 (Schafer)
242? (Rickman)
Only Medina the Elder is a SR all other CO runners return. CO could have a very big impact in NCAA's next year, Also add in Winters from CU.
Bosshard would actually count for Wisconin. He is from La Crosse, WI.
A lot of the mountain states could have guys up there if their runners were 23-25. Colorado is more impressive to me than Utah.
didnt he graduate from Crested Butte Academy?
Speaking of, so didn't Andrew Roberts. Didn't see hiom in results.
HIGH SCHOOL: Bosshard won three letters in cross country and four on the track. While competing in Wisconsin, he was a two-time member of the Mississippi Valley Conference cross country first team. On the track he earned MVC honorable mention honors in the 3,200-meter run. Bosshard finished fourth at the 2006 Wisconsin Division III Cross Country Championships. In 2007, he placed 27th at the Foot Locker Midwest Cross Country Championship. He also placed second in the 3,200m at Mt. Sac Relays. Bosshard competed in the Nike Outdoor National Meet in the 5,000m and ran a mark of 15:12.
HIGH SCHOOL BESTS: 800-meters: 2:04; 1,600-meters: 4:22; 3,200-meters: 9:11; 5,000-meters: 15:12.
IN THE CLASSROOM: Bosshard is majoring in finance.
PERSONAL: Joseph William Bosshard was born on October 30, 1989 in La Crosse, Wis., to William and Diane Bosshard. He has one older bother (Andrew), two younger sisters (Makenzie and Carley), and one younger brother (John). Bosshard was a world champion logroller for the 6 and under division.

I now have the scores by state updating correctly here:

I'll be able to list more states once more of the runners HS states are added to the sheet so go through there and add them if you can.
