ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — Since 2008, only one NCAA Division I women's cross country team has won 10 consecutive conference titles.

That team? The University of New Mexico women.

The second-ranked Lobo women's cross country team captured its 10th straight league title, winning the 2017 Mountain West Cross Country Championships on Friday at the UNM North Golf Course in Albuquerque.

Behind a quartet of top-five finishers, including Mountain West Athlete of the Year Ednah Kurgat and Mountain West Freshman of the Year Weini Kelati, the New Mexico women claimed their 10th consecutive championship for the longest active streak in Division I.
