I'm back at it... after a long break from posting in the Buffalo XC-Track Blog, I have resurfaced now that the XC season has wrapped up. And, what a season we have had! Record setting season, in fact, for the men's team with a program high 3rd place at the MAC Championships, barely edged out by Central Michigan and Eastern Michigan.... oh how we long to take those two schools down! Then, we took full advantage of the hometown advantage hosting the NCAA Northeast Regional Championships where the men again busted out a huge race placed 7th overall (previous best had been 11th place). Definitely a team full of impressive records and improvements.
The women's team brought in 3 new freshmen, and had very strong showings from Gabby Leo, Leah Rice, and Chrissy Clarkin. Returners brought experience and improvements, and the women improved at MACs up to 10th place, and at the Regional Championships we moved up to 25th place. The young, eager group is now looking towards track, and goals already for 2012 XC season.
Stay tuned for training updates & a preview of the upcoming indoor season!
