Bobcat Twilight Recap
The Saints men and women each placed 4th overall and 1st of small schools at the Bobcat Twilight Meet last week. Zack Gacnik and Hailey Watkins were top runners for the Saints and NAIA at the meet, and they both earned Frontier Conference Runner of the Week Honors for their efforts.
Tony Banovich Preview
Carroll Cross Country will travel 8 men and 8 women to the Tony Banovich Invite. The Monday event should provide a preview of Frontier Conference action with all conference teams in attendance. The Saints outpaced Montana Tech at the Bobcat Twilight, but they will also come up against tough Rocky Mountain College teams this week.
On the men's side, the Saints will still be missing multi-time All-Conference selection Zach Rector who will be expected to open his season in Missoula on September 20. They will also rest Gacnik who will return at Missoula. The women's team has shown some of its greatest depth in the past 6 years and will compete a slightly varied roster in Butte and Missoula to maximize race opportunities for potential Top 7 contributors.
The women's gun will go off at 1:00 pm and the men's at 1:45 pm on Monday at Highland View Golf Course in Butte.
Live results will be available HERE.
