Title | ANEKIN HETMAN
“This course was definitely a tough course, but I believe it will be to our advantage compared to other teams. We train in different places that help us in times like this. Personally, I like the hills and I really have to grind. I was patient early on and kept the pace to the middle until the end of the race. I managed to knock out a few people in the race. Thanks for the support, Aggie Nation!”
What comes next
• The NM State M/W cross country teams will be back in two weeks when they head to Tucson, Ariz. for the Dave Murray Invitational at the University of Arizona. That meeting is scheduled for Friday, September 30. After that, the Aggies will have just one more meet before heading to Texas for the WAC championships on Oct. 29.
