- This is the 6th, and last, episode chronicling perhaps the greatest season rivalry in Southern Section cross country history. Earlier in the 2019 cross country season, Newbury Park High and Great Oak High had each taken one head-to-head victory and now they move on to the biggest matchup of all - the 2019 Nike Cross Nationals (NXN). And they don't just have each other to worry about. Corner Canyon (Utah) and Loudoun Valley (Virginia) are big contenders. With Nationals being the final race of the year, there is no holding back. It is all out for everyone, including Newbury Park's Nico Young. And Nico's competition for the individual title is impressive - Cole Sprout, Josh Methner, Matt Strangio, Caleb Brown, Ryan Schoppe, Evan Holland, and Nathan Green. After the race, three teams get called to the awards stand - soaking wet and cold. There is no clue as to the finish order. We finish the episode with a look at the Great Oak and Newbury Park seniors and where they chose to attend college.
hdRunners joins forces with an icon of California running media to explore the extraordinary 2019 cross country season in this 6-episode series.
Host: Rich Gonzalez, PrepCalTrack
Director: Adrian Brizz, hdRunners - Sport
That sprint finish by Colin ending up winning Newbury Park the team title. He’s gotta feel good about that
If you think about it, Colin passed 2 runners on oak. That gave them 4 points difference. (Took 2 and earned 2). Plus he passed one other runner. He quite literally won the race
Most underrated series on CZcams

Day off for me and I've binge watched this series all day 🙌
So inspiring ✨
Colin taking the lead for 5-10 seconds...
“DAMN IT FEELS GOOD TO BE A GANGSTER”
This is absolutely sick. A lot of gatekeeping happens on the internet for NXN so this finale really shows how unbelievable this event is. Americans - I don't envy you for much, but your high school and college track & XC programs are drool-worthy.
yeah thats the thing about america; we have the best things in the world, but also the worst things in the world, so it's sort of a go big or go home idea when it comes to our country lol
4:20 for a high school mile isn’t fast, it just isn’t fast. He haunts me and my 5:35 mile
i guess he means that if you think it's slow mentally, then you'll likely achieve a time faster than that, whereas if you think it's really fast, you're unlikely to improve to a point where you can be ranked top nationally
not to brag but mine is 5 flat still not that standard though 😂
@@Thelegends21415 it’s a good time but if you think it’s really fast, then you won’t be there mentally
@@EpicGamer427 that’s very true but you also have high school kids going sub 4 and in most states you won’t have a chance of even being considered for states unless you are sub 4:20
@@patrickschirtzinger6026 if you wanna be the best in the nation, 4:20 fast mile mentality wont cut it
25:09 LOL one of the kids at Draper said "I am so freaking cold"
Mateo wearing a mask before it was cool
yeah i saw that , in episode 5 i think it was they were wearing them on the bus in one of the clips and commented the same exact thing
I love how excited Galen Rupp was to give the trophy to Nico Young, the legend himself was a little starstruck
That race was honestly phenomenal honestly crazy to believe how far both teams made it. Nico honestly showed the world how great he is and also for all the teams this was just a unbelievable race it was so awesome I am lost for words.
Casually uses a Easton Creed Allred clip
Lol I thought i was the only one that noticed
Frrr
rich gonzalez has my respect. greatest xc series ever made... and also pretty much the first ever made
i love this series so much , this is the best birthday present u could have given me today!!!!
Great to hear !
I want to show this to my school so they all know what our sports about.
I can’t wait to see Colin in his senior year leading and being an absolute powerhouse in this nation, I’m calling that he’ll be one of the top tier runners in future years
Same, especially with him running a 14:53 at the desert twilight as only a jr. whenever NXN will be next spring, I think he will finish all American and possibly a top ten finish
@@jaredweiss2136 wait they are having NXN in the spring???
@@jasonstephenson3322 yeah postseason starts that day after Christmas. 12/26 is going to be a good day! It’s because of COVID. Although Nike is still host virtual competitions once a week for the top high schools. I would expect NXN to be some time in March
@@jaredweiss2136 Whoa! Hold up there. Just so that there is no bad rumor going around, there is no NXN scheduled in the spring. The next NXN won’t be until December of 2021. 😩
Watch out for that Jeremy Williams kid
I like Sean, he’s reinventing without working hard. That’s the big picture.
Why does the lead up to this race give me real butterflies
I was rooting for Newbury Park all along, and when they won NXN, I cheered along with them. Great job to all the teams who competed! You guys are such a big inspiration.
I swear they included The Easton slipping clip twice... 😂
Editing on this one is fire.🔥Music too ngl
Glad you liked it - Mr. Appleseed
@@adrianbrizz Did u help make it? Do u have a tracklist by any chance?
This was such a hair-raising, goosebumps giving series with very EPIC background music. Keep up the great work HD Runners!
We will thanks !
Appreciate it !
@@adrianbrizz And in my opinion, the background music is perfect. That fast rhythm beat at the intense scenes just goes along with it perfectly!
Class of 2020 was so stacked.
casually revisiting this in two years when colin is the all time national record holder and newbury had the top 3 at nationals including nicos bothers LMAO
I normally do not watch cross country but you got me super hyped up for the race lol and entertained the whole time.
Glad to hear !
3:32 the man on the right is literally grabbing that guys arm.
My Buffalo, NY high school, Bishop Timon, was undefeated in dual meets in 1963. In the All-Catholic Meet, our fifth man lost it and we took second. XC was one of my best high school memories. The other was running 4:53 in the mile on the track team.
Such an awesome series!!! Now we need more videos like these to look forward to! Haha
the chills, the hardwork, the celebration, the disappointment. i can see that chris's mom was tearing up knowing his son suffered
During the interviews, there were several things shared that really got to me. That moment was one of them. Chris is such a great youngster and teammate that it hurt me to hear that. The teams on both teams work so hard. Great Oak showed immense class in defeat.
@@richgonzalez5061 really respect what they are doing and what you are doing too sir
Yup ! Chilling stuff
This series is so good!
Great video to culminate this amazing series
I love this this was Excellent.
all of them have such good personalities
Waiting patiently
Collin really did clutch it tho for his team
Glad I could be featured on this episode. WHO SAID WE CANT RUN IN RAIN!? 1-2 BABYYY! CALI BOYS BABY.
No way bro was that actually u?
@@jaredweiss2136 yes . I ride for my Cali boys . Especially those I once competed against.
@@alexisromero3414 lol. Since u live in Cali what’s ur best 5K?
@@jaredweiss2136 best was my senior year (2018) at state 15:56 on the Woodward course. Team finished 2nd to GO :)
Dude this made the episode ! Great Job haha
This year was a crazy year. Had so many heavy weight from so many places battling it out for #1
“4:20 isn’t a fast mile” yeah ok bro 😭😭🤣
POV you watched it more than 10+times
I love these
No doubt these kids are amazing runners, but more importantly they are wonderful, intelligent people.
remember when milesplit thought cole sprout was going to win? 😂
wish I could watched this before state yesterday
I’m ready
This hype asf
My man Gabe seems like a chill dude
he is really chill and he’s a great guy as well
@@austinelkins6966 INDEED.
Stand up individual
1:25 Oh hell naw 😂😭
The nerves I got for the build up to the race I can’t imagine how I would feel if I was actually there holy sh!t
2:37 they just predicted somthing right there
When your team is in the vid 💚
Damn that's a nice finally.
Waiting for this comment - glad you liked it FB
question: all of them have the nxn spikes on , when did they break those in 😂
i waiting on this..
4:20’s not fast for a high school mile, it’s just not fast
Do one of these for Mount Carmel in San Diego
They really played HALO music at 13:40
Haha sounds like it ! But it’s not I assure you
Me, my freshman self, and my 19:44 5K:

Just do it
@@jayvonpryor1956 lol
@Jack Bolger all I gotta do is up my mileage from 30-35 to 65 miles... shouldn’t be too hard 🤔
@Jack Bolger Considering I’m only 14 and Indoor season is coming I’ll probably stick with my mileage but turn up the intensity instead
Great Oaks goes home.....
DEVASTATED!
31:28 for some solid values
So Nico and Jace were both valedictorian?
Yes, both received Valedictorian honors. Newbury Park High awards Valedictorian honors based on achievement of a certain GPA - and the 2020 cutoff was a 4.65 GPA. There were 28 students in the graduating class that achieved this honor. At least one other NP Cross Country Athlete, Archana Mohandas, achieved this GPA as well (and she now runs for MIT).
How are Nico and Jace both valedictorian?
Newbury Park High awards Valedictorian honors to all students achieving a GPA of 4.65 or above.
still no dislikes
Wait...
Nico responds to dms!?
Wow
I notice the Young 'twins' weren't on the stage...only one was...was it Leo or Lex that was on this team? Looked up the results...it was Leo. Next question: How can a team have only 128 points with places of 1-18-53-95-100? Why isn't that 267? Did they take out unattached runners from the score? If so that means there were a lot of unattached runners in the top 100.
yeah, unattached runners aren’t scored
Wait how were both jace and nico valedictorian?
Any student with a GPA of 4.65 or higher gets the award.
@@pepper6412 I realized that after I finished watching the video
@@pepper6412 out of curiosity, you have the last name Young. Any family relationship?
@@jaredweiss2136 yes, Nico is my son:)
@@pepper6412 Holy crap I’m talking to the person that created a possible future Olympian. It is an honor... I am a freshman in NJ who does XC and I am the number 6 guy on my varsity squad this year. It would mean the world if, when you get the chance, just to tell Nico, Lex, and Leo my name and that I said hi. My name is Jared Weiss. I am such a huge fan of all 3 of your children and they have inspired me to become the best runner that I can be. Also, I can 100% tell that part of their success is from the support of their parents. They are very lucky to have you as a mom! 😁
Honestly I'd rather take 3rd than 2nd. Temecula looks so dead after getting second.... second in the nation. 3rd place is fantastic because you make the podium, but you don't feel like you missed out on first.
Jesus loves you
Yikess 1:25 purple guy
Hey at least Easton got credit his video clips at 38:54
We were glad to have Easton as a contributor to the documentary series Finale.
@@hdRunners and I was glad to see Easton as a contributor to document the series Finale
Find me at 1:43
This video is having an error and doesn't play
Thanks for heads up. CZcams help indicates there is a known issue with playing video and they are working to fix. Unfortunately nothing we can do on our end.
Great oak pulled a Saugatuck if your from d3-d4 Michigan you know
4 20 is really fast..... National fast NO. State wide fast
Is it just me or do you hate the team that won
Why don’t they cover the girls races lol
Bc this series was mainly about NP and Great Oaks boys team lol
Yes, between Nico and the battle between GO and NP for the national championship during the 2019 season, this series did focus on the boys' side. But, the girls have their own stories, and we will cover them in a few episodes we are planning in the coming months. Stay tuned.
@@hdRunners Cool, but wasn’t it already leaked in one of the episode that GO’s girls team had lost by 4 points in the state championship
@@hdRunners also once this XC season is said and done in the spring, will you be making another golden state legends series for both NP and GO boys teams
Jared, we are currently discussing our next steps on the Golden State Legends series - but nothing firm yet. This was a monumental effort, and we haven't yet had time to flesh out what we will cover next. Following up on where these two teams go in the future is a definite possibility. Thank you for you interest and stay tuned.
For some reason I completely dislike Newbury parks coach
@@jonmissel747 not true at all, coaches always go on the stage. The two Draper coaches were both on stage at the same time, they finished third (watch the video). Coaches also go up on stage in the NCAA. Every coach is different and the Newbury coach has a great connection with the kids and their parents. It was amazing to watch .
@@jonmissel747 The Coach is a part of the team too my guy
@@jonmissel747 Thats amazing to say "we". The coach is a part of the process with the team. They go though the season together. The coach has to sacrifice as much as the athletes to be the best. They talk about this in an earlier episode. Those kids are lucky to have coaches at NP and GO give them so much time effort and passion. They, We, Us all do it together! One big team as it should be. Did you see the BYU coach go crazy on the NCAA stage last cross country season. it was amazing to watch!
@@jonmissel747 The women's coach was on stage for BYU and was shaking the heck out of the trophy it was an amazing moment. They invite the HS coaches on state at NXN and NCAA'a is a cool thing and amazing.It's kind of sad it bothers you. I'm 100% sure all the NP guys wouldn't change it for the world. You seem mad about it and thats strange.
