Sept. 30 2021 statewide boys cross country coaches polls

OSAAtoday presents its first in-season statewide boys cross country coaches polls of 2021 in all classifications. Thanks to all the coaches who took the time and had the expertise to contribute their opinions to this endeavor.

Look for the boys cross country coaches polls periodically on Thursdays during the fall season.

Please note that we need more participation going forward. If you are a high school varsity cross country head coach who did not vote but would like to, please email John Tawa at [email protected].
