It will be announced at 2 pm PST, but those in the know expect that when the 13 at large births are announced for the NCAA national cross country championships, that Gonzaga Men’s team will be team number 14
Despite this slightly heartbreaking position, Gonzaga Men’s team had their best performance ever at the West Regional Championship yesterday placing 6th as a team. Even better, top GU runner James Mwaura contended for the win down the stretch, ultimately taking 3rd. Joining him on the all regionals team was Peter Hogan! All our top 5 runners placed in the top 50 finishers, just a fantastic result.
Here’s a story from GoZags
In related news, Gonzaga signed top local talent Will Smith to next years team. Will will graduate from Spokane high school LC next spring. Will was 4A state cross the champion last week and will contend for state championships in the spring in the 1600 and 3200 meter races.
Most of this years Gonzaga team will be returning next year and Will Smith should improve our chances of making it to nationals next year!
