[Cross Country] Tigers' harriers earn national honor

Comments

Georgetown College men's and women's cross country achieved a first in Tiger athletics through their selflessness and community-centered outreach this season.

Friday evening at the honors banquet for the NAIA Cross Country National Championship meet, the men's team received the NAIA Buffalo Funds Five Star Champions of Character Team Award for all these efforts. However, coach Lucas Garnett is quick to point out, this award is an acknowledgement for both teams.

This award was created to recognize one team in each sport based upon their documented display of exemplary character and sportsmanship during practice, competition, on campus and in the community and no other Georgetown team has ever received this award. The NAIA Cross Country Coaches Association Officers was the voting body for this honor.
