Official Results

EMMITSBURG, Md. - Senior Andrew Weber became the first GW men's cross country runner since 2014 to win an event as he paced the Colonials to a team title in the Mount St. Mary's Duals on Friday afternoon. The women's cross country team placed second, led by junior Suzanne Dannheim's second place finish.

• Weber captured the individual title with a time of 15:44.80, the first time since John-Louis Pane won the Seahawk Invitational in 2014 that a GW runner earned the individual victory.
• The Colonial men claimed just the team meet, also the first since 2014, finishing with 44 points, 14 ahead of second-place Mount St. Mary's.
• Sophomore Jackson Cronin (15:53.21) and junior Colin Wills (15:53.97) both recorded top-five finishes to give the Colonials the team victory.

• Dannheim finished second (18:25.95) and was followed shortly thereafter by senior Madison Yerke (18:35.46) to put two Colonial runners in the top three.
• GW finished second overall, trailing only reigning Division III National Champion Johns Hopkins. The Buff & Blue were the top Division I team at the event.
• Seniors Halley Brown (18:59.90) and Brigid Prial (19:11.06) finished seventh and ninth, respectively, to round out the four Colonials in the top 10.
