Hello everyone,
Thanks to those of you who came out to watch our MIAC and North Regional races! It was great to see so many familiar faces.
MIAC Championships
The MIAC meet was held back in St. Paul, at a neutral site, for the first time since 2016 – and it was great. The course was wonderful, we had more fans and alumni come out to spectate than in recent years when the meet was not in the Twin Cities, and our guys ran great too. We finished 2nd, our highest finish since also placing 2nd in 2016, and had four All-MIAC performers, which was the most since 2007.
NCAA North Regional
We came into the regional meet hoping to take another step forward from our MIAC performance, and ended up finishing 7th in what we think is the toughest region in the country. Our guys again ran well and, other than some small adjustments for the future, we thought each guy ran about as good of a race as they could’ve. At the end of the day we wanted better than 7th, but that’s what keeps the fire lit for the future. Junior Lloyd Young qualified for the NCAA Championships individually for the second year in a row with his 10th place finish.
NCAA Division III Championships – Tomorrow!
Lloyd, as well as CSB’s top runner Fiona Smith, are both racing this weekend at the NCAA Championships in Lansing, Michigan with the women racing first at 11 a.m. Eastern Time and the men following at 12 p.m. Noon Eastern Time. Lloyd and Fiona finished 52nd and 5th last year, respectively, and both will be looking to improve on those performances come race day.
