College Station ISD will send four full cross country teams to the UIL state championships next month, the first time both of the district's high schools have qualified their boys and girls squads in the same season, KBTX reported Tuesday.
A&M Consolidated's girls led the way at the Class 5A regional meet, winning the team title with 57 points and an average time of 18:51.
The other three teams earned their spots by finishing in the top places:
- College Station boys: second with 69 points and an average time of 16:08, behind Austin LASA, which scored 52.
- College Station girls: third with 162 points, averaging 20:06.
- A&M Consolidated boys: fourth with 193 points, averaging 16:40.
The result builds on a strong district meet earlier this month. CSISD hosted the District 17-5A championships on Oct. 15 on the new home course at its Career and Technical Education Center, where the Consol girls and the College Station boys both took team titles, according to KBTX.

The UIL state cross country meet is at Old Settlers Park in Round Rock. Classes 2A, 4A and 6A run Friday, Nov. 6, and Classes 1A, 3A and 5A, including both CSISD schools, race Saturday, Nov. 7, KBTX reported.
