Hard work pays off for App State cross country in first race of season

Izzy Evely was named the Sun Belt Women's Runner of the Week earlier this month. The cross country team has their next race Friday, Aug. 20 at the Don Kennedy Trails at State Farm.

The men’s and women’s cross country teams at App State embrace the challenge of pushing themselves to their absolute limits, day in and day out.

“Quote about pushing to limits or hard work”

The constant hard work paid off in the team’s season-opening race, the Covered Bridge Open, in Boone Aug. 30.

The men’s team took second place out of nine teams after six of the Mountaineers finished in the top 21.
