Teams will flock to College Station, Texas on Friday to compete in the SEC Cross Country Championships.
On Friday morning, the best runners from the SEC will take to Watts Cross Country Course in Bryan-College Station, Texas for the SEC Cross Country Championships. The women’s 6k will kick off the event with the gun sounding at 10:08 a.m. ET. The men will head to the starting line for a 10:50 a.m. ET start in their 8k. On the men’s side, the Arkansas Razorbacks will look to repeat as champions, while the Florida Gators will look to win their second SEC title in a row, as well. Alabama currently ranks No. 7 in the nation with 262 points, but Florida is not terribly far behind at No. 14. The Crimson Tide were crowned champions in the 2022 season, so Friday’s race will be a battle as the both teams look to finish on top.

The Razorbacks rank No. 3 in the nation for the men as the team has accrued 310 points this year. The team ran at the Thomas Zimmer Championship Cross Country Course in Madison, Wisconsin recently and dominated the competition. Three runners finished in the top-10 with Patrick Kiprop finishing fourth, Kirami Yego finishing seventh and Yaseen Abdalla coming in right behind him in eighth. They all finished within 18 seconds of each other. Alabama trails Arkansas by just under 100 points at No. 11 with 213.
With those two teams being the only participants in Friday’s championship race in the national rankings, the title will likely be awarded to one of them, but there is certainly the possibility that one of the outlying teams pulls off the upset and claims the 2024 title in Texas.
Tune in Friday morning as the runners leave everything on the course for a shot at hoisting the trophy at the conclusion of the race.
Regional restrictions may apply.
