Baylor cross country closed out the regular season Friday at the Arturo Barrios Invitational in College Station, Texas, with the women securing an 18th place finish and the men claiming 29th.

As she has often done throughout the season, Eldoret, Kenya, freshman Ruth Kimeli led the Bears with her third consecutive top-15 finish. Ending the day in 11th place, Kimeli recorded a personal best 19:37.8 time in the 6k race.

Kimeli was far from alone in recording personal bests among the Bears. Six of the first seven Baylor finishers on the women’s team and seven men outran their personal records as well.
