Wow... somehow we all forgot to post this! Smile

The Pilot men won their 29th straight WCC title and the women won their 11 of the last 12 with the wins this weekend.

Dana Morgan won the individual title for the women, while the highest men's finisher was Zuber Ahmed, who took second. It was the first time a non-UP runner didn't win the race in 29 years... kind of a bummer, but I suppose eventually we weren't going to win it since we don't send our best runners down there.

There are some really cool video highlights and interviews available here:
