Men's XC: Our two late-season surprises

Thanks to Ginny Townsend for sharing this midrace photo of junior Bryan Buttigieg (sophomore eligibility in XC) and sophomore Charlie Ropes. Butti, with the headband, flowing locks and killer mustache, was not even supposed to be on our XC roster this year. He came in to preseason is phenomenal shape and kept building from there. Charlie (aka Batman) overcame an early season bout of never ending illness to put together one of the better November racing seasons in recent memory -- third man at MAACs, individual title at Vassar, second man today at IC4As. Nicely done!
