So use the adjective "men," sexist idiot.

Tone it down people. We meant the only American male to win a World XC Championships.
Wait with the above sentence you could argue a male has won the junior championships so it's not correct.
So what we were referencing was the only American to win a men's World XC championship.
I think most people understood the point since men's and women's championships are completely separate races and separate sports.
If I said Arthur Ashe is the only African Ameriacn to win the US Open, I think most people would understand we're talking about men's US Open.
But we added (men's) to the front page to make it clearer.

And this is why so many consider this site to be an utter joke. Zero professionalism or accountability.

re: Amateur Hour.

Doris Brown Heritage. From her Hall of Fame entry:

A pioneer in women's distance running, Doris Brown Heritage won the world cross country championships from 1967 to 1972 -- the first five years in which this international competition took place.

Love Lynn but Doris was a true pioneer.
