BOULDER — The University of Colorado cross country teams have consistently been one of the most dominate combined squads in the nation and this year the Buffs looks like they will remain that way with all of the talent returning to both men’s and women’s teams.
Both of CU’s cross country programs are ranked in the USTFCCCA’s Coaches’ Preseason Poll heading. The men are the preseason favorite, while the women are eighth overall.
The season officially kicks off on Saturday, August 30, as the Buffs will host the CU Alumni/Open/Time Trial at the Buffalo Ranch Cross Country Course on CU’s South Campus. The women’s 5.8-kilometer race will start at 8:30 a.m. and the men’s 8k race will follow at 9:15 a.m. Parking and admission are free.
