The UNM Cross Country teams went up to Indiana this past Friday to compete in the Joe Piane Notre Dame Invitational, coming away with a win for the women and a 9th place finish for the men. This being their first real event of the season, the teams have to be encouraged by their performances.

Cross Country Runs in Ruidoso
Yesterday, the Lobo cross country teams went down to Ruidoso to participate in the Texas Tech Double Duals, and participate they did. If we simply look at the results, they would be less than encouraging. The men’s and women’s teams had identical results, finishing below Texas Tech, NMSU, and UTEP, while only doing better than Wayland Baptist (the men’s results can be found here and the women’s results can be found here). This would be a really disappointing result for the 21st ranked nationally men’s team and the 2nd ranked nationally women’s team, if the goal had been anything but simply to participate.

Cross Country’s High Expectations
2007 was a different time. The Dow Jones began to decline, a terrible Fantastic Four movie was released, and Hillary Clinton was running for president. It also happened to be the last time that the UNM Women’s Cross Country team didn’t win the Mountain West Championship. For seven straight years, the women’s team has taken home the trophy, with the men joining them for the past six years. We’ve been spoiled, to say the least.
