Below is a look at the possible number of teams coming out of each region in the state. These are based strictly on how many schools from each region have had at least five runners run a 5000 Meter race at least ONCE this season. This does NOT mean the runners have run the minimum of four high school races to be eligible for the post-season. This does NOT mean the schools will actually enter and show up with five runners on November 6th. The schools listed below the region link are the highest ranked in the regional automated rankings as of October 26, 2010. There are NO guarantees on the teams listed making it to the KHSAA State Cross Country Meet. ***NOT OFFICIAL PROJECTIONS*** Click on the Region Link for the Regional Automated Team Rankings.
