First-year Morgan Boonshaft led the pack with a 52nd place finish and a time of 21:05.45. Isolde McManus (73rd/21:28.94) and Olivia Fraga (79th/21:31.97) were the next two finishers. Emily Mrakovcic (84th/21:34.17) and Nimrit Ahuja (91st/21:37.64) were the last two point scorers for the women.
Scarlet Stimson (103rd/21:47.84) and Maxine Montoya (128th/22:06.22) were the final two finishers. There were 268 total finishers for the women's race.
"Today was a great cap to an amazing season for these women," said women's Cross Country coach John Kenworthy. "They met and exceeded so many of their goals and they took on new challenges over and over with confidence and excitement. I know they will have more to give and we will continue to build in the years to come but this season was pretty special and we're enjoying it quite a bit!"
Senior Justin Hickey ran fastest for the men's squad, finishing 90th with a time of 31:51.22. Matthew Doherty (94th/31:54.27) and Sam Colton (105th/32:04.24) followed behind. The final two point scorers for the men were Tommy Gaffey (122nd/32:19.26) and John Farrell (126th/32:21.85).
Sebastian Margetts (208th/33:34.86) and Colin Fisher (211th/33:41.43) were the other two men's finishers. There were 256 total finishers for the men's race.
"From start to finish, I'm really thrilled with our fall," said men's Cross Country head coach Collin Zeffer. "Many of the guys had breakout seasons and we had a lot of first year athletes have some bright moments. We caught some tough breaks in big races which were certainly frustrating at times but you're never going to be perfect. There was a lot of progress made this year so far compared to last fall. It culminated in a 20th place team finish at the regional championships, three places ahead of last year and eight places ahead of 2022. The bar will continue to be raised with these guys and I'm proud of our team for the impact they had individually and collectively."
