As the countdown of the top five moments of the 2016-17 season continues, USF cross country runner Alex Short finds his place at No. 4.

Short, a senior from Bicknacre, England, raced to the West Coast Conference individual championship on Oct. 28 at Tecolote Shores in San Diego's Mission Bay Park. With the victory, Short joined Cheyne Inman (2007) as the only other Don to capture the individual men's title.

"Any time you win a championship it is special, but Alex's win was incredible as he went head-to-head with several All-Americans and raced with such poise and confidence," recalled USF head coach Helen Lehman-Winters.
