CU Men Place Second, Women Third, at NCAA Pre-Nationals

Sage Hurta leads Buffs with third-place finish

TERRE HAUTE, Ind. — In the final tune-up before the postseason, the University of Colorado cross country teams had a successful outing as the men placed second and the women took third Saturday at the NCAA Pre-National Invitational at LaVern Gibson Championships Cross Country Course.

The CU men, who were ranked third heading into the weekend, finished exactly where there were projected to on paper in the 8-kilometer race behind second-ranked BYU. The Buffs gave the Cougars a good run for their money, finishing just two points behind (81-83).
