Meet Preview:

Everyone's
goal is to be running at Woodward Park on the Saturday after Thanksgiving. That is the day of the State cross country meet. This invite is on the state course and several local schools usually compete at this meet to preview the course.

The Highlander Invite is a very low key affair much like the EB Invite. No meet sponsor, race bibs, computer timing but one does get to preview the state course. Last year the Ridgeview boys and Shafter girls took team titles.
