Albuquerque, N.M. - Nevada Cross Country are set to compete at the NCAA Mountain Regional Championships on Friday, November 13, hosted by the University of New Mexico at the University of New Mexico North Golf Course in Albuquerque. This meet is one of nine NCAA Division I regional championships and serves as the gateway to the NCAA National Championships.
The event will feature the Women's 6K race at 10 a.m. PT followed by the Men's 10K race at 11 a.m. PT. Live results will be available here, and the top two teams from each region, along with the top four individuals not on qualifying teams, will earn automatic bids to the NCAA Championships in Terre Haute, Indiana on November 21. Additional teams and individuals will be selected at-large.
The Mountain Region is widely regarded as the most competitive in the country, featuring perennial powerhouses such as New Mexico (No. 1 Men, No. 7 Women), Colorado (No. 2 Men, No. 9 Women), Northern Arizona (No. 20 Men, No. 6 Women), and BYU (No. 6 Men, No. 1 Women), all ranked nationally. Nevada enters the meet looking to build on its performance at the Mountain West Championships and improve on last year's regional finish, where the men placed 18th and the women 16th.
The duo that led the Pack on the men's side this season were Austin Key and Cael Mattioli, who combined for multiple top-three finishes, and Natalie Roberts, leading the women's side highlighted by an 8th place finish at the Charles Bowles Invitational.
Last season, Nevada saw strong individual efforts at regionals, including Austin Key's 83rd place finish, and Natalia Martino's 76th place finish.
