MileSplit Team Scores: See How Returning Teams Stack Up

With cross country season in its early stages, MileSplit is giving you a new way to see how returning teams stack up heading into the fall.

Team Scores use performances from returning athletes to create a snapshot of each program entering the season, making it easy to see which teams bring back the strongest lineups and where the competition stands.

Explore The Teams

The new Team Scores experience goes beyond the final ranking. Each team is displayed with its score, average time and scoring spread, along with a visual showing how its returning runners compare.

Want to take a closer look? Click the X to show the athletes contributing to a team's score, then click the dots to see the individual returners behind the team's ranking.

Use the interactive Team Scores below to explore the returning talent, compare teams and get a closer look at the programs to watch this cross country season.


What if every Girls Class 1A team in Maryland raced head-to-head? We scored all 19 full squads using last season's returners' best times to see who comes out on top in our 2026 virtual meet.
