Freshmen power is felt in both the University of La Verne men's and women's cross country teams. Three freshmen and a junior made the highlight of the season qualifying to the NCAA division III West Regionals.
Led by youth, both the men's and women's cross country teams at the University of La Verne witnessed vast individual improvements, but had disappointing team showings at Saturday's Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SCIAC) multi-dual meets at La Mirada Regional Park.
Pacing itself through a day of improvements, the University of La Verne's cross country team battled warm weather to cross the finish line and set personal records (PR) at the Riverside Cross Country Invitational on Saturday.
