Seven Missouri men set 8k PBs as the Tigers took fifth at the SEC Cross Country Championships hosted by Texas A&M, Friday, November 1, 2024.
The No. 3 Arkansas Razorbacks won the team title for the fourth time in five years.
Drew Rogers paced the Tigers, finishing 11th overall 22:54.1, the program’s highest individual conference finish since 2021.
“Overall, it’s a big improvement from last year,” said Rogers, who earned All-SEC Second Team honors.
Last season, the Missouri men placed ninth as a team, and Rogers took 39th overall.
“We’ve known in the past that SECs (have) been a spot we’ve struggled mentally, and I think we did a really good job of preparing coming into this race compared to previous years,” Rogers said.
