WATERLOO–The RedTails finished second in the 8K Division II Region XI Championships on October 29.

With a time of 28:20.6 Cooper Olson finished fifth. In ninth place was Harrison Vanderlinden with a time of 28:28.2. Stephen Thomas finished 11th with a time of 28:43.5. 

"Overall I was happy for the guys to have personal best times at a championship event on our home course," says coach Tyler Mulder. "It was nice to have parents and fans get to see the student athletes in their environment. They really closed the team score gap on what they were projected to do. D'artagnon & Colvin are both really stepping up to be our 1-2 runners!"  

Next up for the RedTails is the 2021 NJCAA Cross Country Nationals in Richmond, Virginia on November 13.
