BIG 10 Cross Country Championships

Recommended Posts

Not a great showing from the men's team. Veatch raced well and put himself in a strong position. Unfortunate to finish fourth out of the pack, but still a strong showing from a sophomore. 

Receveur is a great talent. She could be top 20 at nationals. Seems the girls program is starting to make some strides.

Happy for Veatch. Two straight years the men's team has missed Nationals now. A little disappointing. 

Receveur with another great showing and the entire women's team squeak through to Nationals. That program has made tremendous strides in the last few years. Excited to see how Receveur finishes this season.
