Has any school ever had more than one National Champion at Kinney/Footlocker?
Nope (pretty sure, at least). Good question, though.
I haven't seen anyone else mention Carly Matthews and Matt Debole both from Mt. Tabor making it in 2001, a year that included one of the Kaltenbach and a Zeigle sister.
Regarding Rockford:
In 1998 Hartman and Ritz made the finals.
In 1999 Ritz And Kalin Toedebusch (now Ms Ritz) made the finals
In 2000 Ritz, Toedebusch and Linsey Blaisdell made the finals.
Also, in 1999, if Rockford had been a state, their girls would have finished second in the MW regionals behind only Illinois. They finished 4,10,11,28,39 (and 47).
Chantilly HS sent one to FL and one to NXN this year. Not exactly what you asked for, but still a fairly impressive feat.
Saratoga Springs NY had 4 girls make it in 2004 & 2005.
Kingwood TX had 3 boys make it in the same year (twice) and Virginia VA had 3 girls make it in the same year.
There have been 32 other times that 2 boys have made it and 36 other times 2 girls have made it.
There have been 19 times that a boy & girl have made it including Saratoga Springs NY with 5 total in 2005 and Virginia VA with 4 in 1979.
No school has had more than one boy win. The closest is San Diego CA with a 1st & 2nd.
No school has had more than one girl win. The closest is Montgomery CA with a 1st & 3rd.

Damn, Saratoga sent 4?! 5 would be epic beyond compare. What would that take for West boys, 5 sub 9 two-milers
saratoga's #5 in 2004 was 28th at FLNE in 2004
mile PRs at the end of that school year for their top 5 were: 4:42/4:49/4:55/5:02/5:04
best team ever.
Jeff Grove and Marty Bassett -- Bloomington North High School 1981 Kinney meet (now Footlocker). That was one of the all time great teams too. 1-5 Spread was 14:55-15:15 I think at their state meet?

The girls from Utah (who got in trouble w/ racism) whose name escapes me.
To name just a few.
Curious what the story with these girls is. Some kind of Mormon "black people are cursed by God" shenanigans?
found this thread and wondering myself what the story is
Last year, Chiles of Tallahassee had Ana Wallace and Michael Phillips.

That Kingwood team was one of the best all-time. Wish NXN had been around for them.
They had two additional guys on roster that were eventually Texas state champs. Crazy good.

I always hate seeing teammates running as a pack at the very back of the field.
Fordson had two guys in this race
Kingswood had three.
