More about Foot Locker West
The Foot Locker Series is the most presigous high-school-age individual national championship in America.  There are 4 regions and California is one of 13 states in the West Region.  The top ten finishers at the 4 regional races (in the Seeded Race only) advance to Foot Locker Nationals the next week where the runners travel to San Diego and spend 3 nights at Hotel Del Coronado - at no expense.  It is an unforgettable experience - just ask Karlie Garcia or Clare Carroll - and you meet every other fast runner in the nation.  The Top 10 runners qualify for Foot Locker Nationals, while the Top 24 runners are regarded as All-West Region. 
There are also many other races that day, the next biggest of which is the Frosh/Soph All-West Regional race.  There is another Frosh/Soph race, but the All-West race is the one to be in.  The Top 24 runners here are named All-West Region in the Frosh/Soph division.  Marisa Carino, Sierra Jaeger, Ellie Velez, Lauren Stanislaw, and Katie Mersereau earned this distinction in 2011.  There is also a middle school race, Junior-only race, and Senior-only race. 
What race do I enter? Want to race the best and don't care about where you finish, or think you have a shot at Nationals?  Race seeded.  Want to race against a strong - but not elite-level - field?  Race Junior or Senior only.  Chances are much better that you'll medal.  Frosh or Soph and just want some Mt SAC experience vs. a shot at Nationals?  Race in the Frosh/Soph All-Region race.  Not the first Frosh/Soph race.  The 2nd one is a much bigger deal, podium awards, similar fields, and you get an hour extra sleep.
