SUNNYVALE, Calif. — One of the most accomplished cross country runners in Santa Clara history added to his résumé on Saturday morning. Joey Berriatua ran a 23:50.5 in the men's 8-kilometer invitational race to set the SCU school record at Baylands Park.
The redshirt senior's mark is two seconds faster than Kurt Ruegg's previous school record of 23:52.5 from the 2014 West Coast Conference Championships. That year's conference meet was also held at Baylands Park.
As a team, Santa Clara took fourth place among 17 Division I programs for its best finish at the event since 2009.
