The women's squad ran first in the 5k, where Chloe Figgins crossed the finish line second with a time of 17:49.56. This time was nearly 30 seconds faster than her time at the same season-opener last year (18:18.40).
Also for the women, Brooke Mussche came close to the top-10 with a 13th-place performance (19:02.77). Several athletes finished in the top-50 in a field of 121 runners.
Four of the top-10 finishes for the Tigers came from the men's squad in the four-mile run, where Zachary Wyatt led the pack in third place with a time of 19:54.21. Payton Gleason (sixth, 20:03.00), Vincent Chenier (seventh, 20:09.10) and Hudson Hurst (10th, 20:18.89) followed close behind, all earning top-10 spots.
All athletes for the men's team finished in the top-50 in a field of more than 100 runners. Anton Michna and Tate Wyatt both grabbed top-25 spots, placing 13th and 22nd, respectively.
"The men's team had a great season opener," cross country coach Ken Frenette said. "We just need to continually work on closing the gap between our fourth and fifth runner, and also get our sixth through ninth runners in sight of our fifth man. For both teams, this was a good meet to see where we are and build upon our positives."
Next up, the team will travel to compete in the North Alabama Showcase Sept. 16 in Huntsville, Ala.
