With a 15:11 5k last spring and 4th at USAs, I'd say she has as good a shot as anybody to win NCAA XC this fall. Jordan Hasay came close but was never quite able to pull it off. Cuffe doesn't have the greatest kick but hopefully she will have the strength to break some of the other women earlier in the race. Although she does have superior 5k and 1500 PRs to Emma Bates and Kate Avery so perhaps she would have the best chance if it comes down to a late kick..
