Crossroads League Announces Men’s Cross Country Award Winners
JACKSON, Mich. – The Crossroads League officially announced its 2022 Men’s Cross Country All-League and Coach-of-the-Year honors on Monday, following No. 4 Indiana Wesleyan winning its fourth league crown in the past six years and eighth title in the past 11 seasons.
The Wildcats saw four student-athletes earn All-CL accolades, led by Eli Fullerton, who won the CL’s individual championship. No. 12 Huntington also took home four honors and finished second, while No. 16 Taylor finished third and claimed a trio of awards. IWU’s John Foss was voted the Crossroads League Men’s Cross Country Coach of the Year.
In order to be named as an All-Crossroads League performer, an individual must finish within the top-15 at the league championship meet and must place inside the top-seven on their respective team. In cases when more than seven runners from the same team finish inside the top-15, the top individual performers immediately outside the top-15 from teams with fewer than seven award winners are named to the list.
The Crossroads League Coach-of-the-Year honor is voted on by the league’s head men’s cross country coaches.
