Cross country to race in Greater Louisville Classic

The men’s and women’s cross country teams are looking forward to the Greater Louisville Classic after coming off a successful meet last weekend in Baton Rouge, La.

Last weekend at the SEC Preview, the men’s and women’s cross country teams finished as runner-ups. They competed with Arkansas, LSU and Texas A&M. The women’s team also raced against Mississippi State.

The two standouts for Ole Miss were Mario Garcia Romo and Anna Elkin. Anna Elkin finished in sixth place overall and helped secure second place. Romo won his first career individual title by two seconds over Arkansas. In a press conference, head coach Ryan Vanhoy gave praise to Romo’s success, looking to his honors of SEC Runner of the Week and National Runner of the Week.
