First interview is with 2002 Group AAA state champion Jennifer Boyd of Hickory. In the first state cross country meet for girls back in 1979, Kempsville's Kendall Tata won the AAA race out of the Eastern Region. It took 23 years until the next state champion came out of the region with Boyd's 18:54 victory on a rainy, cold, and sloppy day at Great Meadow on Saturday, November 16th, 2002.
