The UTM cross country teams turned in impressive finishes in the non-scored Old Timers Classic this past Saturday in Bowling Green, Ky. The meet was hosted by Western Kentucky University.

Angelina Gracian finished the 5K only six seconds from her personal best and this is only the second meet of the season. Shalaine Phaup was able to run 6:12 miles for the distance and claimed a top-25 finish. Karen Taylor and Hannah Taylor finished 44th and 46th, respectively.

On the men’s side, junior Derrick Kenwright led the Skyhawks as he ran the five miles in under 28 minutes for a 26th-place finish.

Walk-ons James Thomka and Jay McCurdy came in second and third for UTM.

Thomka, a freshman, finished 48th overall, while McCurdy, a junior, finished 51st.

Robby Clapper, Philip Rhodes and Carson Kuehn finished 54th, 56th and 59th respectively.

The Skyhawk cross country teams return to action Saturday when they make the short trip to Jonesboro, Ark., to compete in the Arkansas State Indian Invitational.
