This maybe the highest quality girls field ever assembled for a HS XC race. These girls will each go down as all time greats within high school distance running.
So who will take it??? I have to go with Baxter for the simple fact that she has never lost a race and I believe she is fitter than last year despite Mt SAC. Her last hs xc race will undoubtedly be her toughest though. Both Efraimson and Cranny are the real deal. Efraimson beat NCAA runner up Emma Bates at Dellinger this year and Cranny ran a 16:48 at altitude. I think it truly will come down to whoever has the best day at Saturday. They are all phenomenal.
If Sarah wins, I believe this stamps her name as the GOAT. We'll see what happens....
