Crossroads League Announces Cross Country Award Winners
By Seth Mikel-
The Lady Trojans took four of the 15 All-Crossroads League nods, with Indiana Wesleyan also claiming four awards and Huntington notching three. HU’s Hannah Stoffel claimed the individual CL Championship and Taylor’s head coach, Quinn White, was voted the Crossroads League Coach of the Year.
The Wildcats men took six of the 15 all-league nods, with Taylor also claiming six awards. Huntington’s Haile Stutzman claimed the individual CL Championship and HU’s head coach, Nick Johnson, was voted the Crossroads League Coach of the Year.
In order to be named as an All-Crossroads League performer, an individual must finish within the top-15 at the league championship meet and must place inside the top-seven on their respective team. In cases when more than seven runners from the same team finish inside the top-15, the top individual performers immediately outside the top-15 from teams with fewer than seven award winners are named to the list.
