MAAC XC Championships: Proud of our all-MAAC runner

As we plow into November and the remainder of championship season, I just wanted to highlight our lone All-MAAC Runner from Saturday's meet. Sophomore Mara Schiffhauer got 12th place in the women's race. Top 15 get All-MAAC. Never has it been more difficult to get a top-15 showing -- the men have not had an All-MAAC runner since 2012 -- so it is worthy of mention and praise. The MAAC field has gotten incredibly competitive with the addition of Quinnipiac and Monmouth two years ago, and with the continued improvements in every other program in the conference. Top to bottom, it is a deep and strong conference, so to notch a top-15 finish is worthy of note and praise, and I did not want it to get lost in the shuffle. Nicely done, Mara!
