Brojos, thanks for posting the live race on the site. Great idea! This sure beats looking for streams, or just not watching at all.

Your welcome.

I should stop being surprised....

4:46 first mile for the boys.

all about the strength on the downhill.

Teach your athletes how to run downhill.

Hirsch and Gessner looked terrible on the downhill. Trying to stop themselves.

Affolder raced like he went in with a plan to finish 6th. Was never in it.

What a race. From 5th at the Texas state meet to Foot Locker champ.

South wins boys and girls

Best footlocker race I've seen in years. It was nice for a change not having a clear favorite in the race.

Thanks for putting up the coverage, I enjoyed it very much.

I concur. Thanks for streaming this race!

And to all you NXN lovers out there, Footlocker is not dead yet...far from it. Excellent broadcast today and two great, competitive, exciting races to boot!

Thanks to Lets Run/Foot Locker/New Balance and 80 great runners!

Both races were awesome and thought it was one of the better covered meets I have seen in recent memory! The main announcer was great and deserves much credit!

Great use of split screen with the splits and some occasional back in the pack coverage - which would have been another good time to use split screen.

Wisconsin picks up #2 and #3 on the guy's side -WOW!

Wish they would have shown the "TEAM" scores before shutting down the coverage.

Uniforms were great for the girls..."cute" and probably too "cute" for the guys...but not much to complain about!!

Sad that CC is over!

what happened to worley? he's a nice kid, bet he'll make a comeback in track

Thanks for posting the Texas state resulfs. I heard FL was today and I am still looking for the boys results. If I find them , i might put them in this thread.

His 2nd place at NXN last weekend perhaps taxed him too much? Or, just a slightly off race?

Thoroughly entertaining races!

Balboa course, elite top to bottom, superior race footage and commentary, and great racing.

Footlocker xc is simply better product than NXN for xc fans and casual viewers alike.

---Let's not miss that Worley and Hirsch handicap the two races, and apparently FL top 10 easily wallop NXN

top 10.

Would have much preferred to see Oakley at FL this year. NXN field was outclassed by her there.

Or maybe look at how the Footlocker champ did at NXN. Clinger was the best this year.

would sure be nice if NCAA XC champs had a big hill like that. The dowhill bits were great racing - after the first lap we knew the texas guy would rip on the downhill, so the buildup to that was great entertainment.

NCAA is just a long track race.

Thank you for posting the video. I can't tell you how nice it was to just have a FREE available that was easy to find, along with great coverage. 10/10

NE Boys scored over 100 points... has that ever been done before? Pretty embarrassing, considering they could've all walked the course and only scored 120.
