TOXC Alumni Watch - Update #1

We are now through weekend #4 of college cross country with several alumni competing.  In addition to freshmen Marco Godinez and Matt Garvin, several alumni have competed including Sean Gildea, Andrew Snyder, and Kevin Joerger.  Unfortunately, several others are sidelined with various injuries including Allie Lopez, Evan Hillman, and DJ Smithers. We hope to see them back in action before season's end.
I'm a little behind on the alumni race updates, but I will try to bring you the highlights.

News from Colorado
