Under Armour Team of the Week Announced

CORVALLIS, Ore. – The Corban University Men’s Cross Country team was named the Under Armour Team of the Week for August 26 – September 1, the Cascade Collegiate Conference announced Sunday.

After an incredible season last year, Corban was picked No. 4 in the CCC preseason poll and ranked No. 22 in the NAIA preseason rating.

This weekend, Corban began its new season at the Linfield Harrier Classic at Joe Dancer Park. The Warriors had eight representatives hit the course, competing against an aggressive field. Corban placed second-overall, beating out multiple NCAA DI and DIII teams in the process, finishing right behind University of Portland.

Sophomore Jack Gladfelter continued the success he had in the CCC and NAIA postseason meets last season with a seventh-place finish at 18:28.13, representing the top NAIA finisher and the fastest 6k time in Corban men's cross country history. Gladfelter bested Warrior legend Robert Swoboda's 18:29.0 from last year's Harrier Classic by less than a second to make his mark on the program in just the first race of 2024.

Next up, Corban will compete in the CCC Preview meet on September 20th, which will be hosted by Multnomah at the Rose City Golf Club.
