The Northern Arizona men’s cross country team was selected for an at-large bid in the NCAA Cross Country Championship in Terre Haute, Ind. The Lumberjacks finished fourth at the Mountain Regionals in Albuquerque, N.M., Northern Arizona’s David McNeil repeated as the region’s champion with a time of 29:51.
Big Sky cross country teams will travel this weekend to their designated sites for the NCAA regionals. Eastern Washington, Portland State, and Sacramento State will all travel to Eugene, Ore. for the West Regional.
The Northern Arizona cross country teams captured the Big Sky Conference XC crown for the third consecutive year. The task was not easy as the field had to deal with frigid temperatures and muddy conditions. Junior David McNeill and senior Veronica Pohl captured the individual titles once again for the Lumberjacks, as the duo accomplished the same feat in 2008.
