      • The team I follow for NXN has auto-qualified, but that has not always been the case. Now that all of the regionals have been completed who will be the teams that get an at-large bid for girls and boys this year.

        Their are four teams for each gender. Here are my predictions.

        Boys, HL1, CA1, SW2
        Girls SW1, NW1, NY1, SE1

      • On the boys side I would say Brentwood definitely gets one. For the other 3 I say heartland will get one, California will get one, and southwest will get one.

        Brentwood qualified automatically by winning

      • Claremont gets the shaft twice in California. I wonder if they would have taken Claremont if they beat Dana Hills for 3rd overall, taken both teams, or left both sitting at home. I think Dana has built up enough of a reputation to where one might think how could you leave them out? Which I half agree with.

        Do they decide which regions will receive the at larges in advance (at their committee meeting in October) or after the CA State meet?

      • Well, for the girls they were a bit back of Palos Verdes. I was actually surprised that Palos Verdes got in (I guess their second place to Greak Oak at Mt. SAC ahead of both Claremont and Davis was probably just as important as their state meet performance).

        As for the boys, it would have been interesting if Claremont finished ahead of Dana Hills. Tough to see two California at-larges, but also tough to see none. Cathedral Catholic really messed things up, huh?

        Finally, no, the at-larges are determined after all the sectionals are complete.

      • I am pretty sure the NXN selection committee never published any rankings. Seems like milesplit or dyestat, or maybe letsrun, would have covered that.
