Jack Beckstrom, a senior at Herriman High in Utah, joins DyeStat editor Doug Binder to discuss competing Nov. 18 in the boys championship race at the Nike Southwest Regional at Coyote Run Golf Course at Leisure World in Mesa, Ariz. Beckstrom finished 72nd last year at NXR Southwest as Herriman XC placed second behind rival American Fork XC. He also achieved a 67th-place effort at Nike Cross Nationals at Glendoveer Golf Course in Oregon, helping Herriman XC to a third-place finish, with American Fork XC earning fifth. The lineups are competing for the fourth time head to head this season in Arizona and are seeking a potential fifth showdown Dec. 2 at NXN, with Herriman having won the most recent matchup by a 26-43 margin Nov. 4 at the Pre-Foot Locker event at Pleasant Grove, rebounding from a 33-39 setback Oct. 24 to American Fork at the Class 6A state championship meet at the Regional Athletic Complex in Salt Lake City.

NXR SOUTHWEST WILL BE LIVE ON RUNNERSPACE ON SATURDAY, NOV. 18 (+PLUS required)
