Arkansas coach Chris Bucknam watches Saturday, April 22, 2017, during the John McDonnell Invitational at John McDonnell Field in Fayetteville.

The order of finish for the University of Arkansas men’s team at Friday’s SEC cross country meet in Columbia, Mo., wasn’t what Coach Chris Bucknam expected, but the outcome went just as he had planned.

The No. 6-ranked Razorbacks won their second consecutive championship with 40 points after Ole Miss won in 2018 and 2019. It was also the 27th SEC title for the Razorbacks.

Ole Miss had to settle for second with 59 points.
