October 24, 2019 Cross Country Blog Updates

As we approach Cross Country regionals this weekend, the KHSAA wanted to remind fans and coaches about the qualifying process for the 2019 KHSAA State Cross Country Meet.

The State qualifying process for Cross Country will be:

• 1 full team enters the Region Meet, 1 team advances.
• 2-3 full teams enter the Region Meet, 2 teams advance.
• 4-5 full teams enter the Region Meet, 3 teams advance.
• 6-7 full teams enter the Region Meet, 4 teams advance.
• 8-10 full teams enter the Region Meet, 5 teams advance.
• 11 or more full teams enter the Region Meet, 6 teams advance.

After the teams qualifying for State are determined, the top five (5) individuals from teams NOT advancing to State will qualify for the State Meet as individuals. Please contact Assistant Commissioner Sarah Bridenbaugh (sbridenbaugh@khsaa.org) should you have any questions.
