The coaches pick their favorites for the coming fall season
OSAAtoday presents its first statewide girls cross country coaches polls of 2023 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 girls cross country coaches polls periodically on Wednesdays during the fall season.
Please note: 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].
