Who would win NCAA's with only their current in state runners?

Well Washington beat UCLA and they have 5 of 7 from in state (with Huxam and Stevens from Redwood CA)

Why would a school like Stanford have all CA athletes? It's not a state school.

Syracuse, also not a state school, has always had a ton of NYers on it's roster.

Looks like Syracuse has 4 of their top 7 in state and same goes for Michigan. BYU only has two (somewhat surprising).

Only one of Syracuse's top 3 is in state, so I'd kind of rule them out. Wisco's only 3 are at the back end of their top 7 and UVA only has 2. It'd probably come down to Washington and UCLA.

Kenya.

Last year, Michigan State won NCAA with six of their top seven from Michigan. UM had their entire top seven from Michigan until injuries hit late in the season. At one point, they were ranked 1-2, with 13 out of 14 in their top sevens from in state. That shows the incredible depth from Michigan high school girls in recent years.

Last year Cuse's top 4 at nationals were from NY.

If you don't have 5 from in state, you can't score. UGAs whole squad is from Georgia.

I think UTEP has the best in-state representation. Lot of Texas natives that are very proud to wear their El Paso uniform

Well, Knight should have been their #1 and he's Canadian. And their #3 now, Bennie is not from NY

I would say women's xc is pretty good right now. Shame Kate Avery left though.

Well they still placed 5th w/o Knight running well and they had plenty of other New Yorkers on their roster. Name another team that would have done as well with all in state athletes last year.

History.

1985

Wisconsin won NCAA cross with 6 guys from Wisconsin and I guy from 15 miles from the Wisconsin border in Illinois.

I know.

We were second.

Only championship race our team lost during my 4 years.

It can happen.

Accurate history is that in 1982 Wisconsin won with that in-state talent, The 1985 team had three non-Wisconsin runners in the top 7 but the first 4 were all in-state.

You won't likely see anything like that again.

Did Arkansas ever have one runner from Arkansas in their top 7 on all those championship teams?

Did Colorado, Stanford, or Oregon ever have more than two in-state recruits on their championship teams?

Thanks for the correction.

Arkansas with Arkansas runners on championship team?

Ever hear of Daniel Lincoln or Brian Baker?

Louisville

might as well include EKU if you are looking at Kentucky school with lots of locals
