Many of the questions that have lingered across Arkansas since summer training kicked off in June remain unanswered and over the next two days, we'll finally start to see some of the questions finally answered.
Wake up! It's time to go racing, Arkansas!
As we did last year, the Milesplit Arkansas crew is back to make their predictions for the upcoming state meet that is set to take place today and tomorrow at the Oaklawn Infield in Hot Springs.
Today on the panel we have a pair of Arkansas state champions and D1 athletes sharing their predictions! Mountain Home's Ky Bickford is back as our male representative and Russellville's Brooklyn Nicholson is joining us for the first time as our female representative.
Best of luck to everybody competing and we wish all runners, coaches, officials, and spectators safe travels as they embark on the home of Arkansas cross country over the next two days!
See below our final individual and team predictions
