The Monmouth College cross country teams finished their seasons on Saturday at the NCAA Midwest Region hosted by Wartburg at the Max Cross Country Course in Waverly, Iowa. 

"With a much bigger field than our conference championships our goal was for both teams to get our hard and avoid getting boxed in," said head coach Cooper Pauley. "Both groups did that very well and were in positions to complete where we needed to be in the middle of the race."
