Hilliard Davidson Sr. India Johnson is the defending champion in the girl's D1 3200m with a 10:55.90. She's not done with XC yet as she was 2nd in the Nike Cross Midwest Regional and heads to Portland for the Dec. 3rd Nationals. She will need a brake before the Indoor season, but expect her to be ready to more than defend her title. (photo Shawn Conlon)
