When cross-country redshirt sophomore Thomas George first arrived in America from England two years ago, some things threw him off.
He wasn’t used to cars being on the right side of the road, so whenever he crossed, he would be looking in the wrong direction. Whenever he tried to order a glass of water, his English accent when pronouncing “water” made it hard for people to understand.
But his success on the course this season hasn’t differed from his success in England.
This year, George has been the fastest Tiger in all his races but the first, where he was the second Tiger to cross the finish line.
