WALLA WALLA – The Lewis-Clark State College cross country teams missed taking first for both the men and women by only two points, as the women’s team ran away with the title, but the men’s team, despite having the No. 1 finisher in Adrian Ramirez (left), was narrowly defeated by Whitworth University.
LCSC coach Mike Collins was very pleased with the way both his teams performed at the Whitman Invitational, “I am ecstatic with the results,” he said. “Both teams surpassed my optimistic outlook for the day in ways that I could not even imagine.”
The men’s team saw five of its runners finish in the top ten, but was highlighted by Ramirez who won the individual title as he finished the 6-kilometer course in a record time of 19:26, more than 13 seconds ahead of his nearest competitor. Ramirez’s time topped the previous record of 19:29 set last season by former L-C runner, and current assistant coach, Calin Hantau.
The Warrior women were led by freshman Stephanie Shuel, but it was a total team effort that won them the title. Shuel’s time of 15:04 on the 4K race was good enough for third, and because eight other Warriors finished less than a minute behind her, the women’s team score of 36 was well ahead of Whitworth’s second place total of 45.
The LCSC men and women, currently ranked No. 12 and No. 14 in the nation respectively, now look ahead to their next meet on Sept. 20 in Boise.
