2022 Oct 18

Eastern Connecticut State University's men's and women's cross-country teams have begun their fall 2022 season. The men's team consists of 14 runners and competed in its first meet on Sept. 2. The women's team consists of 10 runners and competed in its first meet on Sept. 2.

Among the student-athletes is graduate student Tyler Wright of Westport, who majors in Accounting.

First-year men's and women's head coach David Nicholson looks to elevate his teams this season. "I think that if we can take just a little more of a step, we can put together some big performances across the board and be consistently at the top of the league, and hopefully start to get on the national stage, as well." He points to team culture as a catalyst for success: "As long as we're dedicated to the task and we're dedicated to being disciplined and establishing the culture of working hard and working together, then the results will come."
