The Syracuse Orange cross-country teams entered the ACC Cross-Country Championships with hopes of reclaiming a title on the men’s side and getting the women some NCAA at-large points.
At the conclusion of Friday morning’s event in Tallahassee, one of those goals was accomplished. The Syracuse men finished second behind the North Carolina Tar Heels (49-65) as UNC placed four runners in the top nine including overall winner Parker Wolfe (23:03 for the 8k). Paul O’Donnell (2nd in 23:08) and Perry Mackinnon (5th in 23:15) led the Orange with Sam Lawler (10th in 23:28), Nathan Lawler (22nd in 23:48) and Assaf Harari (26th in 23:55) completing the scoring.
