The Ole Miss men’s and women’s cross-country teams opened up the season on Saturday by placing second at the Louisiana State University’s Southeastern Conference (SEC) preview.
The men’s team had a great day running in the 6K as three Ole Miss runners finished in the top 10, including Mario Garcia Romo in first, Waleed Suliman in fourth and Cole Bullock in fifth place.
Even with these strong finishes, Ole Miss was not able to collect the points they needed to defeat the Arkansas Razorbacks.
Ole Miss women’s cross country had five runners finish in the top 12, including Anna Elkin in sixth, Skylar Boogerd in seventh, Victoria Simmons in eighth, Ryann Helmers in eleventh and Nicole Rice in twelfth place.
