PORTLAND, Ore. --- The Portland Pilots men's cross country program has signed top recruit Justin Hazell, who will join the Pilots on the Bluff in the fall of 2018.
Hazell, a native of Woodland Hills Calif., currently holds the third fastest 3200 time (8:54) in the nation among juniors in 2017. Running for El Camilo Real HS, he also won the Woodbridge Invitational and the Clovis Invitational this fall, which rank as two of the best high school cross country meets in California.
"Mile for mile, Justin might be the top prospect in the nation," said head coach Rob Conner.
