The No. 12-ranked Emory men's cross country team tied for second
place out of eight teams at the 23rd Annual University Athletic
Association Championships today. This year's competition was
held at Squire Valleevue Farm in Hunting Valley, Ohio, and hosted
by Case Western Reserve University.
The Eagles and Carnegie Mellon each finished with 67 points and
trailed No. 7 New York University's first-place total of 41
points. Washington University (92 pts.) claimed fourth while
Brandeis rounded out the top five with 120 points.
Emory's senior trio of Charlie Meade, Paul Winterhalter and Tommy
Fyffe all claimed top-10 finishes. Meade was the first Eagle
to cross the finish line and third overall in the 80-runner field
with an 8K time of 26:20. Winterhalter was fourth (26:23)
while Fyffe placed eighth (26:36). Rounding out Emory's
scorers were senior Alex Robin (25th, 27:18) and Barri Levinson
(28th, 27:22).
By virtue of their finishes, both Meade and Winterhalter earned
First Team All-UAA honors while Fyffe landed second-team
recognition.
The field's No. 1 finisher was Zach Maher of NYU with a performance
of 26:06.
Emory returns to action Nov. 14 when it competes at the NCAA
South/Southeast Regionals in Greensboro.
