Final Results
BOONE, N.C. - In heir final race before heading to the Southern Conference Championships, the Davidson men's cross country team collected their second top-ten finish of the year, coming in tenth place at the Blue Ridge Classic in Boone, N.C. over the weekend.
The Wildcats were led by senior Alex Hoyt, whose time of 25:46 was good for a team-best 31st place finish and was nine seconds better than his record-setting run in his last race. Hoyt now holds two of the top-ten 8K times in Davidson school history, both set in his last two competitions.
Senior Lance Harden ran the 8K course in a time of 26:10 to put him in 48th place among attached runners. He was followed by Thad Sieracki's 50th-place finish and time of 26:17, in the top 50.
Rounding out the Wildcat contingent was Greg Marcil (71st/26:50), Ian Tupper (76th/26:56), Ryan Hopkins (85th/26:56), and Peter Bruton (98th/27:24).
As a team, Davidson finished with 276 points, a total that was better than four of their fellow SoCon competitors that ran in the meet and putting them in tenth out of 26 teams in attendance.
Davidson will not turn their attention to the Southern Conference Championships on Nov. 1 in Spartanburg, S.C. Last season, the 'Cats turned in a strong team performance on their way to a fourth-place finish at the 2007 SoCon Championships.
