As a freshman, Frank Pittman has made quite a start in men’s cross country. The former Gatorade State Boys Cross Country Runner of the year and Marist graduate has already notched two ACC Freshman of the Week awards. Pittman sat down with the Technique to talk about his early success.
Technique: How did you originally get into cross country?
Pittman: Actually, I got into cross country through my dad because he ran cross country all throughout high school and then all throughout college. So he wanted to, I guess, not force me and my brother into cross country because then we wouldn’t like it, but he almost enlightened us.
