MURFREESBORO, Tenn. – Graduate Student Jacob Choge qualified to compete in the 2021 NCAA Cross Country Championship Men's 10K race in Tallahassee, Florida on Saturday, November 20.
Choge was chosen by the NCAA Cross Country Committee to compete in the event after finishing sixth (29:38.44) at the NCAA South Regional Men's 10K last Friday in Huntsville, Alabama. That placement was good enough to earn himself an automatic qualifying bid to the championship next week. The fifth-year graduate student from Eldoret, Kenya has had a storied career with Middle Tennessee XC, next Saturday will mark his sixth NCAA Championship that Jacob has qualified for, and will be his fifth actually competing in.
