Cross Country Team Travels to Albuquerque for NCAA Mountain Region Championships
Nov. 12, 2002 The University of New Mexico will host the NCAA Mountain Region Cross Country Championships. The event will be held a New Mexico's North Golf Course. The women's 6,000-meter race will start at 10 a.m. (MST) and the men's 10,000 meters will start at 11:15. Seventeen men's and 18 women's teams will compete from the Mountain Region. Included in the Mountain Region are Mountain West Conference opponents Brigham Young, Colorado State, New Mexico, Utah and Wyoming. The regional championship is the qualifier for the NCAA Championships. The top two teams (seven person teams) at each regional championships meet automatically qualify for this year's championship race. The NCAA Cross Country Championships is Nov. 25 in Terra Haute, Ind. The first four individuals not on a qualifying team from each regional championship meet advance to the finals. Two additional qualifiers will be selected at-large based on the highest non-qualifying finish in regional championship meets. All individual qualifiers must finish in the top 25 in their region. Last year, the Air Force men's team finished fifth in the region, while the women's team finished seventh. Air Force qualified its men's team for the NCAA Cross Country Championships, David Romero (class of 2002) and Ben Payne earned all-region honors. Only one female qualified for the women's championship race. Brandess Pardue finished 23rd among 111 competitors and earned all-region honors. She finished 223rd in the NCAA championships. The men's team finished 26th in the 31-team race. The Falcons' varsity team had last week off. The cross country "B" teams raced against the University of Colorado.
