2015 XC Regionals Predictions

By: Garrett Zatlin

I didn't have time to go in-depth about this, but here are the major details you need to know about my predictions...

-Wisconsin will get second.

-Villanova will not make nationals. Penn will.

-Illinois surprises Tulsa for the last auto-bid spot. 

-Virginia will not get first...or second...or third. UVA will finish 4th.

*Ignore the teams in white. Excel messed up on a couple of things.
