** ... Photos from Footlocker Nationals (below) ... photos courtesy of Michael J. Huggins ... Michael currently lives in Southern California but has ties to Argyle, and was kind enough to send me cross country articles during the season ... According to Michael, the San Diego weather was great ... the course was very fan friendly, allowing you multiple views of the runners at various times from a limited area ... several photos were taken at the 1.6 mile mark ... Caitlin McTague ran an incredible race - staying near the front the whole way (at least according to the announcer) ... Michael met Linda Kranick (Saratoga) to wish her luck (she complimented Arglye on their outstanding season) ... Michael also met Nicole Blood's grandparents - they were surprised to see a former Argylian there (they are all from Gansevoort - not far from Argyle) ... the track announcer murdered the name of Nicole Blood's hometown of Gansevoort when she was introduced.
