Yes, But

Humboldt’s tight scoring pack showed consistency, but it wasn’t enough to close the narrow gap to fifth place.

What’s Next

The Lumberjacks are scheduled to race the men’s 10K at the NCAA Division II West Regional Championships on Nov. 21 in Sacramento. The race time has not been announced.

Bottom Line

Humboldt has a compact scoring group to build on as it heads into the longer regional race.
