There's no rest for the successful.MSHSL Class AA Boys champions Wayzata, newly ranked #1 in the Nike Team National Heartland Region, and Class AA girls winners Burnsville, slotted as the Heartland's #4 girls squad, headline the Minnesota high school teams racing in Sioux Falls on Saturday in the NTN Heartland Regional in hopes of earning the right to compete at Nike Team Nationals in Portland, Oregon on December 1.
#4-ranked Rosemount, the Class AA boys runners-up last weekend, #8 Brainerd, and un-ranked Stillwater, Willmar, and Perham will also line up in the boys' NTN qualifying race. A number of other boys and girls squads from Minnesota will compete in non-qualifying events at the day-long event.
The first and second place teams from each of the nine NTN Regions, plus four "wild card" selections, will qualify for the Nike Team Nationals. Last year, the Willmar boys team finished 16th at NTN.
