It's two straight for Chiara Dailey.
The La Jolla (CA) sophomore made swift work of the girls championship field on Saturday at the Foot Locker West Regional, attacking the Mt. SAC course en route to the win in 17:42.
Dailey's qualification makes it back-to-back appearances at Foot Locker Nationals, where she was an All-American as a freshman.
Her finish also highlighted a West group that includes Eleanor Raker and Sophia Rodriguez.
On the boys side, Ponderosa's Josh Chu was one of nine finishers separated by just five seconds, all qualifiers to next week's Foot Locker Nationals.
But it was Chu who earned the win, clocking a time of 15:23.
Just last week, the UCLA signee closed off his California regular season -- and high school cross country career -- with a third-place outing at the CIF Division I state championships.
