Cross Country Prepares with Final Tune Up Before Nationals

With just 2 weeks until the USCAA National XC Championship, the men's and women's cross country teams competed at the Hamilton College Tune Up Invite. The women raced a 4k while the men did a 5k. 8 men and 7 women clocked personal bests. The men had just a 23 second spread between their top 6 runners ranging from 16:56-17:19 which helped the team place 3rd. While the women had just a 16 second spread between their top 4 runners (15:39-15:55), good enough to place 2nd behind host team, Hamilton. Both teams will go for a remarkable 5th consecutive USCAA  National XC title, Saturday November 8th on the campus of Penn State Fayette. "This was a great tune up, we are peaking at the right time, the work is done" said Coach Melfi.
