New to NXN this year is a one of a kind prediction contest.
For each of the three weeks of Regional competition, participants will
be able to log their predictions for which clubs will automatically
qualify for the National meet in Portland , as well as the individual
winner of the boys and girls championship race at that week’s Regional
Championships. The contestant who predicts the most automatic
qualifiers and individual regional champions will win an
all-expenses-paid trip for two to watch the National Meet in Portland
on December 5th. Any ties will be broken by guessing the largest
margin of victory by an individual champion at any of the regional
championships.
Here’s how the contest works:
-between 11/11/09 and 11:59PM PST Friday 11/13/09 select the club teams
you expect to qualify for the NXN finals in week 1 of the NXN Regionals
and the individual athletes you expect to win the boys and girls
championship races at the NW, HL and MW NXN Championships
-between 11/18/09 and 11:59PM PST Friday 11/20/09 select the club teams
you expect to qualify for the NXN finals in week 2 of the NXN Regionals
and the individual athletes you expect to win the boys and girls
championship races at the SO and SW NXN Championships.
-between 11/25/09 and 11:59PM PST Friday 11/27/09 select the club teams
you expect to qualify for the NXN finals in week 3 of the NXN Regionals
and the individual athletes you expect to win the boys and girls
championship races at the NE, NY and SE NXN Championships.
So
let us know who is going to make it to the big show and if you can
prove that you know your stuff we’ll bring you out to Portland to hang
out with the best harriers in the country, not to mention meet Nike’s
best athletes, see the famous NXN opening ceremonies and watch the
birth of National Champions!
