BOULDER — The University of Colorado third-rated men’s cross country team is set to compete at its 22nd straight NCAA Championship on Saturday, November 23, in Terre Haute, Ind. The fifth-ranked women’s team will also be at the championships as they will race in their 21st meet in 22 years.

The men’s 10k race is slated for a 10 a.m. (MST) start and the women’s 6k race will follow at approximately 11:15 a.m. (MST) at the La Vern Gibson Cross Country Course at the Wabash Valley Family Sports Center. An awards ceremony will follow both races. The races will be streamed online at NCAA.com starting at 10 a.m. and results will be posted upon the completion of both races.

Both teams advanced to NCAAs after finishing in the top two at the NCAA Mountain Region Championships. The women dominated the meet and scored 29 points to win over New Mexico’s score of 64. The men placed second, just eight points behind BYU (61-69), to move on to nationals.

Ground looks hard & increasingly sloppy. Muddy in spots.

Leaders have just hit 3000m. It's really bunched early, but the Buffs are back. Not among the leaders. Announcers expecting the best teams to make their moves around the 5k mark.
 
Oregon freshman wins individual title. Going to be tough to hold off the Ducks next year for a Pac-12 4-peat.
 
Looks like our Freshman Ben Saarel may gotten 9th (if I saw it right)! Sounding like Northern Arizona (just a feeling by the announcers) may have won the team crown.
 
Just waiting for the team results now but it looks like the Buffs will finish in 2nd behind Northern Arizona.

Got to be NAU. They had a runner who had only been used in 2 meets this year come out of nowhere with a late kick to finish 4th. If everyone else did what was expected, not sure how they didn't take this.
 
letsrun forum showing some website showing CU as the winner (Of course hope it's true).

1. Colorado
2. Northern Arizona
3. Oklahoma State
