The entire idea of Footlocker was Great...
By stressing the top individuals in a region, you not only got to know the sport and the future of the sport better, it became more exciting teamwise as well.
These teams run as a team ALL YEAR.
FOOTLOCKER was "something completely different" and really was something to look for at the end of the season.
Now, because of NXN, both are watered down.
three-quarters of the kids running are just average runners and you have to do your homework to figure out who they are and definitely where they are from..
it is only NOT confusing to the participants and coaches.
Footlocker was unique..NXN is NOT.
RIP FOOTLOCKER.
