Hancock Invitational - One of the most historic races in the St. Louis area. Set on the beautiful Jefferson Barracks course which, if you take a look at the elevation map below, closely resembles the State course.
One of the cool things about this race is how they break it up by class. This gives all the competing teams a good idea of where they stack up at this point in the season! So there will be a Class 1-2 race (which is earlier in the day), Class 3 (middle) race and Class 4 race (towards the end).
Individuals to watch for: Girls - Gemma Saathoff (18:26.97) of Hickman, Elena Coleman (19:26.84) of Cor Jesu and Emma Mohrmann (20:03.03) of Cor Jesu have clocked the 3 fastest times of all the girls entered in the meet. However, there are 20 girls entered who have run sub 21 so this is should be a great race!
Boys - Ryan Parson (15:39.20) of Framington, Max McDaniel (16:01.47) of Festus and Blake Selm (16:17.84) of Parkway West have the top 3 fastest times of all the guys entered. However, with 20 guys having run sub-17 entered in the meet should lead to some great racing!
