NXN 2016 Predictions – Official 2016 NXN Discussion Thread

Also, it's still a travesty that NXN and Foot Locker won't merge or coordinate planning smh
-
Grace Ping FTW!
-
I got money on Principe. I promise.
-
Not sure who's going to come away with the victory but I would bet the farm there'll be 2-3 Illinois boys in the top 10. The team race could very well have 2-3 IL teams in the top 10. It's going to be a fun two weekends for boys of the Land of Lincoln! ILLINOIS tested baby!

Hirsch didnt even get top 3 in footlocker regionals? How do you expect him to win NXN?????
-
Don't sleep on DJ.
-
Terry V FTW
-
Gessner doesn't appear to be entered at NXN (?)
-
No way D.J. isn't winning after that regionals performance.
-
Girls Oakley is the Favorite... I was going with Claudia Lane (CA) for the upset
but she is running Footlocker so I will just say it is PING TIME!! She will win the first of 5 straight titles.
Boys: CC is the favorite but Sam Worley from Texas with the upset...
Teams...I do not care or follow teams but anybody except FM... -
Because smart racing, he just wanted to qualify and not run his hardest and be tired out for his next two weeks of racing.
That's the most likely tbh
Or he just sucks and is burned out, I'm going with one tbh -
1) Principe
2) Clinger
3) Hirsch -
Principe. 15:18 solo, on a wet course at Bowdoin, is ridiculously good.

Ridiculously good, I agree, he would've won if nationals were that day at Bowdoin. But they weren't. Given it is only one week later, he could take a little step back in performance. His mind will certainly be there, though, and I think if he's physically ready he's the one to beat. -
No one beating clinger, dudes a beast
-
Bozeman top 3 boys. Top 5 for girls.
you heard it here first. -
Don't sleep on Hasty. Dude may be 3 feet tall, but he's all beast. Ran 8:57 two weeks ago. Beat Principe at GA.

Hirsch was running just to qualify. Don't think that's indicative of his shape. -

You're right, looks like they gave his spot to the 6th guy at Heartland and milesplit says he's focusing on FL now that he qualified. I'll bump up DJ to that 3rd spot -
Clinger and Principe will battle. No one else close. Principe outkicks him.
