Wesleyan won with 50 points.
50 meter long ponds to run through, gutted out tangents...it was awesome
Agreed. Van Cortlandt was a hell of a course today. The hills had ditches running down them, the fields were wet, and that puddle at about 2/3 mile into the race and 3 2/3 miles was awesome. Must have been almost knee deep. Times totally sucked, probably almost a minute off a legit Van Cortlandt time, let alone a regular course time, but this was very real XC.
props to nick H. of wesleyan
This years winner Owen Kiely's really improved over the past couple seasons, ran 27's last year and 28's the year before. Wow.

And the times Saturday were a good 45 seconds off of a good day, in my estimate. The course was a mess. So yeah, he's improved a lot.
