Check out the top 500 high school boys 5K times ever run at Apalachee Regional Park in Tallahassee, Florida.

On Saturday, many of the all-star seniors of the state of Florida will line up on the Holloway Park course. This race will mark the end of their high school cross country seasons for some, and others will use this race as a tune up before Footlocker and NXR next week. 

We recapped all 16 regions so you can stay in the know on the top storylines from this past week. Here are the recaps and takeaways from all the FHSAA 2A regional meets. 

A stats breakdown of Florida's top returning boys cross country teams and individuals in each region for the 2A classification.

We take a look at the best junior boys in Florida for the 2017 season.

Brenna DeLong recaps the Wiregrass Ranch Run With The Bulls Invitational.

Mt. Dora Christian Academy sophomore Gabriel Curtis is the lone athlete from the class of 2019 to take home a Cross Country Finals state title this year. The fastest time though belongs to state leader Charles Hicks of Bolles who recently qualified for Foot Locker Nationals in a FL#1 mark of 15:07.50. We rank the top 500 sophomores boys in the state of Florida for 2016.

Isaias De la Puente of Forest Hill High School in West Palm Beach told us the basketball coaches suggest he tried out for cross country after never showing signs of fatigue on the hardwood. De La Puente joined the team this year as a sophomore and even surprised himself finishing as the 4A runner-up at the Cross Country Finals and the fourth fastest class of 2019 boy at the meet. We take a look at the top sophomore performances headlined by 2A runner-up Charles Hicks of Bolles who ran the 4th fastest time in meet history of 15:09.13. Where do you stack up against your peers?

The 20th Annual Land O' Lakes Gator Invitational, recently renamed the Keppel Invite after late Gator coach Kris Keppel went off on Saturday at Crews Lake Park in Spring Hill. The course was a familiar one for many teams, starting down a grass straightaway before hitting pavement, then circling clockwise around the open starting area. 

The Mitchell Invitational at Jay B Starkey Park in New Port Richey was in its ninth year on Saturday. However, it was the first year the meet was renamed in memory of former coach Mike Holl. Holl succumbed to brain cancer in February and his presence was an inspiring factor to not only Mitchell runners but to every runner from the 28 teams present. 

Two Bolles sophomores stand at the top of the boys underclassmen rankings. Charles Hicks is the lone athlete on the list of 500 to run under 16 minutes. His time of 15:33.21 from the Florida Horse Park Invitational, isn't just the fastest for freshmen and sophomores, but the state leader through four weeks of the season. Teammate Chase Rivera is second with a SB of 16:05.49 while fellow Bulldog Benjamin Foltz is fourth. We rank the top 500 boys underclassmen for 2016.

The Kiwanis Tri-City Classic at Sand Key Park was more like a battle on the beach as area teams braved the sun and the sand. East Lake's Jen Lima and Indian Rocks Christian's Cooper LaBrant won individual titles while the Osceola girls and East Lake boys took home team trophies.

With a slew of meets going down all across the state, Pasco and Hernando County teams gathered at the Concourse Pavilion at the Pasco County Sheriff Department's Safety Town in Spring Hill. 

This year's Indian Rocks Christian Open has a new location thanks to recent weather. The meet will be held at Taylor Park in Largo and the Golden Eagles are hoping to improve on the boys runner-up and girls third place finishes from 2015. Defending champions Leo Ochoa of Berkeley Prep and Josie Garba of Tampa Prep return with a chance to repeat.
