IHSA Regional Meet Up Next!

The DGS girls cross country team will compete in the IHSA Lockport Regional meet at 10:00 am on Saturday. This meet is the first step in the 3-week state series competition. The Mustangs will be one of 10 teams racing at Dellwood Park in Lockport, vying to qualify on to the next week. The top 6 teams out of the 10 competing teams will advance to next week’s sectional meet.

The following teams will be at the Lockport regional meet:

• Benet Academy
• Bolingbrook
• Downers Grove North
• Downers Grove South
• Lockport
• Plainfield Central
• Plainfield East
• Plainfield North
• Plainfield South
• Romeoville

Three teams (DGS, Lockport, & Plainfield North) are ranked among the top 25 teams in Illinois according to DyeStatIL and should lead the qualifying group.  The Dellwood Park course is a hilly 3.1 mile layout that will challenge all of the runners, regardless of rankings. While winning the team race is always a goal, the main objective will be to advance the team to the sectional meet and staying healthy.
