The Shoremen are continuing their tradition being up front in the SWC Conference.
Last Saturday, the Shoremen placed second to Amherst in the SWC Preview meet. Coming off several injuries, the Shoremen are encouraged by their results and look to defend their three straight SWC titles in October.
Pacing the Shoremen were Tom Parsons and Devin Arora. Parsons placed fourth overall and Arora placed sixth. Following them Devin were Riley Jantz (19th), Trent Glasser (20th), Nick Nix (25th), Mike Callessen (32nd), and Chip Connolly (48th). These seven runners will run the varsity race next weekend.
