Honestly, I think the other states might take this. UT, CO, and WA is a pretty devastating trio.

re: Question of the day

I don't know how you people come up with these kinds of questions...

My guess:

North 30-35 points, having Cali and New York alone makes this team hard to beat, you're looking at a team with German, Lukas V, Ritz, Virgin, Nico, and plenty of others.

Other States 50-55 points, Utah, Colorado, and Washington carry the team, although Montana and Idaho could shore up the 5-7 spots. Luke Puskedra could break into the top 5, Casey Clinger would probably head up the chase pack for a top 10, Danny Simmons could be the deciding factor for this team, as his peak HS form could challenge for an individual podium spot, but based on his XC seasons, he would only be top 8-12.

South 65-75 points, Alan Webb is probably their greatest asset, but I don't think the south has any depth past 4 or 5 runners, with the north and maybe the other states putting 6 or 7 guys each in front of south #5. Kessler in peak track form could be an interesting question that could maybe help make a case for 2nd place

UT, CO, WA, and Idaho is a devastating top 4. Idaho has been improving and will soon become the best state in the Northwest
