> Last season, the Owls impressed with a top-ten finish and had all six runners place within the top 100.

Quotable: Assistant Coach Collin Zeffer
"I'm really excited to see how the guys race tomorrow. We have a really good group of men, most of who are stronger over longer distances so the 10m race distance will cater more towards their strengths. The weather will be rainy but we're a tough group that can handle it. We have to go out and compete and I think we will have a strong team showing!"
