Another fun weekend of racing is on tap as we kick off October with some of competitive meets in several corners of the state.
The KC XC Classic is the biggest one to watch this weekend as several ranked teams and athletes from both Missouri and Kansas will do battle on the beautiful Ray-Pec XC course. Teams to watch include Rockhurst, St. Teresa's Academy, Spring Hill, St. James Academy, Blue Springs South, Lee's Summit, Liberty, Liberty North, Lincoln College Prep, Blue Valley Southwest, and Olathe West, among many others. A stacked meet, it should be the top one to watch in both Missouri AND Kansas.
The Parkway West Dale Shepherd Invitational is possibly the biggest one to watch on the eastern side of the state, with ranked teams SLUH, Webster Groves, Kirkwood, St. Charles West, and Cor Jesu Academy all in attendance. Notre Dame Cape also hosts a massive invitational in the southeastern part of the state, with the hosts Notre Dame will square off with Parkway Central and several other smaller enrollment schools from the area.
The Camdenton Laker Invitational should produce fast times both Friday and Saturday, as it usually does, but don't expect any fast times from the Paul Enke Invitational this year. A date change has several of the usual suspects going elsewhere, but the historically difficult course itself will surely dampen any PR hopes, as it usually does. Keep an eye on the Frank Schultz Invitational in Hillsboro, as well, as we see how the Eureka girls follow up their massive performance from the Gans Creek Classic. The John Burroughs boys are on the radar, as well as Herculaneum, the Seckman girls, and the St. Louis Blue Knights girls.
Several teams travel out of state with Raymore-Peculiar taking a varsity contingent to the Louisville XC Classic, and several teams traveling to the Nike Town XC Twilight (Rock Bridge, Ft. Zumwalt West, Kirkwood, Harrisonville, and Lexington, among others). West Plains, Farmington, North Point, and Central Springfield will be in attendance at the Frank Horton Night Classic in Memphis.
Keep it locked on Missouri MileSplit for all the results and coverage throughout what should be a fast and exciting weekend!
