Council Bluffs, IA -- The Indian Hills men's cross country team finished in 6th place at the Region 11 Cross Country Championships on Friday. The Warriors had seven runners compete and were only three points out of 5th place in their final tuneup before the national meet in South Carolina.
Three of the top 25 ranked teams in the country were in the field and the Warriors were edged for 5th place by Marshalltown CC.
Jon Gerling led IHCC with a 13th-place finish in 27:50 over the 8K course. Glen Morgan ran 29:59 for 31st place. Morgan was followed by Steele Fiscus, who was 32nd in an even 30:00.
Danny Schieffer ran 30:16 for 34th place.
Coach Jim Streeby said a key for Indian Hills will be how the Warriors' 5th runner fares. On Friday, Jordan Bradfield was 5th for IHCC in a time of 33:07; Henry Majin ran 33:09 and Marcus Clark finished in 33:40. Streeby wants one of those three to get close to the 30-31 minute range at the national meet.
Indian Hills will take the next two weeks to prepare for the Nov. 13 NJCAA National Cross Country Championships in Spartanburg, South Carolina.
