GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. - The Kalamazoo College men's cross country team finished second at the Calvin/GRCC Knight Raider Invitational on Friday morning.
Kalamazoo had five runners in the top 25.
Will Thomas finished 10th overall and led the Hornets with a time of 26:34 in the 8K event.
Riley Shults was 17th (27:09),
Jack Schneider was 19th (27:28),
Carson Cook was 21st (27:35) and
Rob Kloosterman was 25th (27:46).Â
"We knew it was going to be a challenging day with the heat, but both teams showed up and competed quite well," said Head Coach
Kyle Morrison. "I was impressed with the progression even over the last week since we raced our season opener. The men gained some more confidence and went out a bit faster today. We have three weeks of training ahead but I am very excited to see our veterans continue to bring this really strong group of first years along."
The Hornets are back in action on Oct. 4 at the Pre-National meet hosted by Rose-Hulman.
