Cross Country Opens Season Under The Lights At Elon

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. — The University of North Carolina cross country teams open their 2019 campaign under the lights at the Elon Opener in Elon, N.C. on Friday, August 30. The women's 4K is set to begin at 8:15 p.m. ET with the men's 6K following at 8:40 p.m. ET.

For the second year in a row, the Tar Heels will be debuting not just a new roster but also two new coaches, program director Chris Miltenberg and assistant coach Dylan Sorensen. Miltenberg and Sorensen joined Carolina over the summer after several successful seasons — seven under Miltenberg and two with Sorensen — at Stanford.
