For teams like the Flowery Branch boys and individual runners like White County’s Jenna Gearing, the state cross country meet is a chance to repeat past success. Other area programs like Chestatee see this weekend’s races in Carrollton as a chance to make some noise and perhaps even take home a trophy for the first time. Flowery Branch’s boys won state titles in 2008, 2009 and 2011 and will be looking for their first championship in Class AAAAA this time around.
