Buff cross country begins its post-season this Friday, 10/27, as it heads to Chambers Creek Regional Park in University Place (south of Seattle), Washington for the last Pac 12 Championships for this sport (at least for the vast majority of the schools participating).
The Men's 8K race is scheduled to begin at 11:10 AM MT and the women's 6K at 12:10 AM MT. Coverages on the Pac 12 Network begin at 11:00 AM MT and noon MT, respectively. (See the below for links and more information.)
Heading in, looks like the conference is not quite as strong nationally as in some prior years, especially on the men's side, but a LOT of conference pride and positioning for NCAA's are still on the line. The Buff men are the highest ranked team in the conference at #9 in the Coaches' Association Top 30 ( https://www.ustfccca.org/2023/10/fe...ns-cross-country-national-coaches-poll-week-4), with Stanford the only other ranked team at #25. On the women's side (https://www.ustfccca.org/2023/10/fe...ns-cross-country-national-coaches-poll-week-4), Stanford leads the way at #5, with OSU (#9), Oregon (#14), Washington (#19), CU (#20) and Utah (#21) also ranked.
Go Buffs!!!
