STILLWATER, Okla. (AP) — Stanford’s Charles Hicks became the NCAA Division I men’s cross country champion and North Carolina State’s Katelyn Tuohy won the women’s side on Saturday.
Hicks set a course file at the Oklahoma State Cross Country Course by crossing the end line in 28:43.6, turning into the primary Cardinal runner to win the person title. Northern Arizona’s Nico Young was second at 28:44.5.
Tuohy crossed the end line in 19:27.7, surpassing Florida’s Parker Valby over the ultimate 1K. Valby completed at 19:30.9.
Northern Arizona claimed the boys’s title for the third straight season — and sixth in seven years. The Lumberjacks gained a tiebreaker over Oklahoma State, 3-2, marking the primary time a tiebreaker decided the nationwide champion in DI males’s historical past. The solely different tie got here in 1942, earlier than a tiebreaker was established.
N.C. State gained back-to-back crew championships — the primary to take action on the DI girls’s aspect since 2009-10. N.C. State is the primary program since Colorado in 2018 to win each the person and crew titles.
