Register For The Brooks XC South Region Championship

The Brooks XC South Championship is quickly approaching. Slated for November 29th at McAlpine Park in Charlotte, North Carolina, the top runners in the South will clash for a coveted regional championship title and a qualifying spot at the Brooks XC National Championships in San Diego on December 13.

To no one's surprise, Texas has filled today's South regional rankings, putting five girls in the top 7 positions just one month until the inaugural Brooks regional qualifying meets.

Macy Wingard (Denton Braswell) and Laney Barnes (Cypress Woods) lead the way for the Lone Star State after a pair of strong performances coming in the last four weeks of racing. We talked about them earlier this week so it should come as no surprise that Texas' 1-2 punch will be strong contenders to qualify out to San Diego in December.

Elin Latta (South Texas Heat - Christian) has had herself a strong season, most recently setting a personal best en route to victory at the VA XC Showcase, running a 16:41.50. Maya Easterwood (Coppell) and Addyson Bristow (Canyon) round out Texas' five in the top 7, each having dipped under 16:45 this season.

While there are sure to be several qualifiers coming elsewhere, expect Texas to have several girls representing the South at Balboa Park in six weeks.
