    wow, this is a failed topic. I guess nobody cares about footlocker.

    But Masciarelli is going to win on the women's side. She destroyed everyone at her region meet. Also, she ran a 20:38 6k earlier in November, that is 5:32 per mile for 1000m longer than a 5k. Her average pace at the region meet was also exactly 5:32 per mile.

    So she dominated against very tough competition, and we know she can hold that same exact pace for another 1000 meters! She has pretty good speed too, so she can thrive in a sit in kick race (that's how she won her region).

    I think she has a better shot at making the Olympic team in 2020 than Tuohy or Ostrander.

    Here’s to hoping to livestream will be successful and not super pixelated like most of the Girls race was for NXN.

    Sydney Masciarelli is going to dominate. I'd like to see her race Tuohy.

    My apologies. No one could reply because of the Live Stream filter we had in place. We changed the thread title

    Great race!

    Hart just took it out and led the entire thing until Sydney caught her with like 200 to go and then they traded the lead multiple times.

    Can't believe i was into a hs race that much.

    That was a tremendous race.

    I figured Hart was cooked once she got caught but they then battled and battled and battled that final 100m.

    Very rare to see someone get caugh and battle back like that even if she got beat.

    WOW that was one heck of a finish in the girls race with Masciarelli and Hart! Super impressive for FRESHMAN Abby Vanderkooi to finish 3rd too, reminds me of Hasay.

    Katelynne poured her Hart into that one! Masciarelli is a legit phenom.

    Mascarelli’s performance makes me wonder how much XC talent is lost to other sports. Lots of soccer/basketball players won’t commit to XC.

    What a finish, was really impressed that Hart was able to find something to come back at masciarelli after she got caught at the 3m mark.

    Katelynne Hart would have won if she didn’t race nxn as well her schedule was sub 16 at state then next week, week 1: NXR, week 2: Foot locker Midwest, week 3: NXN, week 4: Foot locker nationals. That is a much more packed schedule than Mascareli had to deal with and I have a feeling if Katelynne had down time and didn’t have 5 all out efforts in a row her legs would be fresher.
