Cross Country Season Finales on Tap

The final meets of the U.S. cross country season are set for this weekend.

The nation's top high school harriers -- including Shakopee star Maria Hauger -- will race in San Diego on Saturday at the Footlocker National Championships. Hauger, a three-time MSHSL Class AA state titlist, finished 5th at the Footlocker Midwest Regional in November.

The nation's top club teams and some top individuals -- including Team USA Minnesota's Jon Grey and Matt Llano -- will compete at the USA Club Cross Country Championships in Seattle on Saturday as well.

Finally, the youngest competitors in the sport will race for glory at the USATF Junior Olympic Cross Country Championships in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.

Look for results on our Facebook and Twitter feeds this weekend ... and a full report on Monday.
