ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. – Following four meets in California, the Fresno State cross country teams traveled to altitude this week, competing in Albuquerque at the 2021 Mountain West Cross Country Championships at the UNM North Campus Golf Course. Without its top runners on both of their teams, the Bulldogs finished eighth and 11th, respectively.
The men were led by senior Matthew Founds who placed 49th with a time of 25:06.3. On the women's side, sophomore Mia Jauregui finished 73rd at 22:59.3. Freshman Morgan Hutchison was six spots behind her with a time of 23:33.4.
Quotes
Jason Drake, Fresno State Head Coach
On the meet…
"It was a tough day here in New Mexico. We had both of our top athletes go down and we unfortunately lost some team places as a result."
On senior Matthew Founds…
"I thought Matt finished his last conference race well. He was battling to the end against a strong field at altitude."
Up Next
Fresno State will travel Sacramento on Nov. 12 for the NCAA West Regional.
