Women's Cross Country | 10/23/21 | 6:55 PM

Rocklin, Cali. – Carroll Cross Country placed 4^th for women as a team and 5^th for men in a highly competitive field.
 
On the women's side, two teams placing ahead of the Saints are currently ranked in the Top 12 nationally for NAIA, and on the men's side three teams are ranked in the Top 16. "I thought we competed incredibly well considering the caliber of teams at the race and the adversities we experienced with travel on our way to California," said Head Coach Shannon Flynn. "I was just so proud of how the men and women were resilient and showed up to run both focused and hard despite a somewhat stressful 24 hours prior to competition."
 
Reghan Worley placed in the Top 10 in the women's race with her fastest time of the season (8^th – 18:04.5), and Natalie Yocum ran a personal record breaking into the Top 20 (16^th – 18:41.1). "I think Reghan and Natalie will gain a lot of confidence from this race with how fierce they ran," said Coach Flynn.
 
Four men set personal records in the race (Spencer Swaim, Aidan Jarvis, Zach Rector, and Jonah Fisher) with Swaim placing 10^th.  "It was an awesome day for the men as a pack especially considering it is the third 8k in a row for most of the them. In particular it was a big breakthrough for Spencer today and that was really special to see," Flynn added.
  
The Saints are off next weekend and will spend the next two weeks preparing for the Frontier Conference Championships in Dillon, Mont. on Friday November 5.
