Lee University claimed its ninth Gulf South Conference women’s cross-country championship, placing three runners in the top five and eight in the top 12. Ava Sparks won the individual title and earned Runner of the Year honors, while coach Caleb Morgan was named GSC Women’s Coach of the Year.

By the Numbers
  • Lee scored 26 points; Mississippi Christian was second with 75.
  • Sparks won in 20:41.54, the second-fastest 6K time in the event’s history.
  • Lee’s ninth title is the most by any women’s program in GSC history.
What's Next

Lee returns to competition Nov. 21 at the NCAA Division II South Regional, a 6K race at John Hunt Cross Country Park in Huntsville, Alabama.

Bottom Line

Lee’s team depth powered a dominant conference win—and gives the Flames momentum heading into regional competition.
