Nike Cross Southeast Regional Championship
“Over the final 10 weeks of the season, Averi Lowen was unbeaten and stormed to a more than 3-minute winning margin at the state meet— among the largest gaps in the nation—before impressively winning the Nike Cross Southeast Regional meet, which featured loads of interstate talent. With two seasons to go, she’s a quick-rising talent to watch on the national scene.”
