The RedHawks take 12th in both races.

MADISON, Wis. - The 2019 cross country season came to an end for Miami on Friday at the Great Lakes Regional at the University of Wisconsin.

The RedHawks came away with 12th-place finishes in both the men's and women's races.

In the women's 6K that started the day, Emma Bryant led the way for Miami for the second week in a row, running a 21:17.0 for 40th overall, the highest placing of any RedHawk on the day. Bryant also led Miami two weeks ago at the MAC Championship, where she garnered All-MAC honors.

Senior Carly Davis, in her last cross country race for the 'Hawks, was the second to cross the line in Red and White, finishing 69th with a time of 21:49.8. McKenna Fry and Claire Linn, another recent All-MAC performer, took 81st and 87th respectively, while Maegan Murphy rounded out Miami's scoring five.

The men's race used a 10K distance instead of the typical 8K. Anthony Camerieri had a second strong performance in a row as he led all Miami runners with a time of 32:06.0, finishing 67th. Senior David Coffey wasn't far behind, running a 32:10.4 for 72nd. Ryan Sharkey and Obsaa Feda continued the tight pack of RedHawks, finishing just over a second apart for 77th and 79th, while Alex Tam was Miami's final scoring runner.

"Today wasn't quite what we were hoping for," said Miami head coach Tom Chorny following the meet. "It's been an interesting season and I think we made some mistakes early on in the schedule that did not give us the confidence we need. We definitely had a lot of highlights in practice, but unfortunately we were never quite able to show that during actual competition."

"We got very fit by the end of the year and each athlete proved that they are stronger and better than they were before, but we just need to figure out how to show up and compete on race day."

Speaking on Bryant's performance, Chorny said: "I was very happy with the way Emma raced. We've been waiting for her to step outside of her comfort zone and put it all together and she has done that these last few meets. I'm excited to see her take this big step in her growth as a runner and competitor."

Full results are attached above.

The RedHawks will regroup and take some time off before switching gears and jumping into the indoor track and field season later this winter.
