Irish Cross Country Teams Determined to Make National Impact

With abundant leadership and experience coupled with upcoming young talent, Notre Dame’s men’s and women’s cross country teams are shaping up to turn some heads this fall on the cross country course.

After last year’s disappointing 28th place finish at the NCAA Championships on the men’s side, due in part to an onslaught of mid-season injuries, Coach Joe Piane’s squad is looking to improve dramatically this year. After having lost only one senior NCAA participant, these guys are anxious to show their true colors against the rest of the country in Terre Haute this November. Fifth-year captains Jeremy Rae and JP Malette return to lead the group this fall.
