The Warrior women had nine runners selected to the team, including seniors Jessie Gulsvig and Casey Hampton; juniors Kelsey Klettke, Madison Randall, Francis Rojas, and Stephanie Shuel; and sophomores Ashley Barnes, Chelsey Leighton, and Amy Watkins.

On the men's side, the Warriors had six selected to the team. Seniors Chris McConnell and Mickael Testa were joined by juniors Grant Eldridge and Sean Hagan, along with sophomores Dave Marks and Connor Thompson.

The Warrior cross country teams enjoyed another strong fall in 2010 under coach Mike Collins.
