CROSS COUNTRY

For the second time this fall, the Forester Cross Country program swept the league’s weekly Runner of the Week honors. It’s back-to-back badges for sophomore Emma Wilson and this season’s first accolade for senior Adrien Gentie.

Not only is it Wilson’s second consecutive designation, it’s the third time so far this year the sophomore transfer has been tabbed the CL Women’s Runner of the Week.

This week’s honor comes on the heels of a phenomenal performance at the NAIA Seminole Valley Stampede where she clocked in at 16:24 to not only break the course record but finished 75 seconds ahead of her nearest competitor.

Gentie also had a dominant race by navigating the course in 24:43 which proves an NAIA men’s course record. Nearly ten seconds separated the senior Frenchman from the second-place finisher.

Both squads brought home the team title out of a field of 25 teams. Next up for the Foresters is the Crossroads League Championships on November 7.
