NOTRE DAME, Ind. — The University of Notre Dame has announced the complete field of entrants for the 26th annual National Catholic Cross Country Championships, to be held Friday afternoon at the Burke Memorial Golf Course on the Notre Dame campus. The meet will begin with a junior varsity race at 3:30 p.m. (EST/CDT), followed by the women’s varsity race, a 5K affair, starting at 4:15 p.m., and the men’s five-mile competition in the 5:00 p.m. finale.
A total of 35 women’s and 34 men’s teams will compete in this year’s event. Of those entries, 33 schools are sending both men’s and women’s squads, with the participating schools split nearly evenly between Division I institutions (13) and College Division representatives (20 from Division II, Division III and NAIA). In addition, Catholic University (Washington, D.C.), is fielding just a men’s team, while the College of St. Benedict (Minn.) and Saint Mary’s College (Ind.) both will participate solely in the women’s event — all three are College Division schools.
A complete printable list of the entrants for the National Catholic Championship also is linked in a PDF file at the top of this release.
Admission is free to all races at the National Catholic Championship. Final results from the meet will be posted shortly after the conclusion of the day’s races on the official Notre Dame athletics web site (www.und.com).
