BOULDER - University of Colorado cross country head coach Mark Wetmore previewed the 2014 season with the local media at CU’s annual fall sports media day on Saturday.

Junior Connor Winter from the men’s 2013 NCAA Championship team joined Wetmore at the podium to talk about the men’s team. The Buffs return all five scorers (Ammar Moussa, Pierce Murphy, Morgan Pearson, Ben Saarel and Blake Theroux) from nationals, as well as the two non-scorers (Zach Perrin and Winter), and are set-up to defend their title this November. Jake Hurysz will also return to the line-up after redshirting the 2013 season.
The women’s team is going to be young, but they return three harriers (Carrie Verdon, Erin Clark and Melanie Nun) from their seventh place finish at NCAAs. Both teams have added several new faces and are set to start fall training on August 14.

The season will start on August 30 at the CU Time Trial at the Buffalo Ranch Cross Country Course on CU’s South Campus. Admission and Parking are free.

Cross Country Media Day
Media Day Notes
 
Men's team are heavy favorites to repeat as national champions.

Return top 7 runners (lost 3rd alternate to graduation), and they also bring back 2012 All-American Jake Hurysz who was injured last season.

Women's team should again be a Top 10 squad that would need to hit upsides to improve on last year's 7th at Nationals. Shalaya Kipp is a great runner to have to replace.
 
I like the sound of that: Defending National Champions!

Like it even better when you consider the whole team returns, including a re-activated AA and Wetmore is still in charge.....

RG, where are the XC NC t-shirts?
