Main Story

Minnesota State delivered its strongest cross-country showing of the season at the Warrior Invitational, winning the men’s team title and placing third in the women’s race. Sophomore Jack Kendall led the men with his first career race win, while Sophie Baker again paced the women. The Mavericks now turn to the NSIC Championships.

By the Numbers
  • Men: 1st of 7 teams with 24 points; Wisconsin-Parkside was second with 64.
  • Kendall: 1st among eligible runners in 25:45.8.
  • Women: 3rd overall with 48 points, 2 behind second-place Minnesota and 8 behind first-place Winona State.
  • Baker: 3rd in 21:55.3; she has led the team in every meet this season.
Yes, But

Minnesota’s Cameron Stocke finished ahead of Kendall, but Minnesota was not an official participant. The women placed third overall but were second among Division II teams, behind Winona State.

What’s Next

Minnesota State competes at the NSIC Championships on Nov. 7 at Yankton Trail Park in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.

Bottom Line

The Mavericks head into the conference meet with their best team performance of the season—and strong individual form from Kendall and Baker.
