Athlete of the Week

After losing two of the leaders, Wes Stockard '02 and Paul Morrison '02 from last year's team, nobody was very sure what to expect from men's cross country.

One athlete, sophomore Austin Smith, stepped up this weekend, winning the Princeton Invitational 5-miler in the time of 25 minutes, 16 seconds. He was two seconds ahead of the second place LaSalle runner.

Propelled by Smith's placing, the Tiger men won its five team meet. Also finishing high for the men was junior Jeff Dichiara, who came in third overall with a time of 25:30.
