UA Cross Country men finish second, women finish third

The Arizona men’s and women’s cross-country teams ran their first meets of the season as they competed in the George Kyte Classic in Flagstaff on Saturday.

The men’s team took second place in the 4.5 mile race as the women took third in the 2.6 mile race.

Arizona head coach James Li has been stressing how this meet was the first for many of the runners. He wanted the runners to simply run and record times so he can start to put together which runners will do what events.

“I thought it was a good meet for us,” Li said.
