Freshman Zabel Collins finished third on the team in 26th with a personal record by 2 seconds. Sophomore Darius Moser topped his best mark by 1 minute, 1 second and finished in 31st, while junior Maddex Honas bet his top mark by 1 minute, 3 seconds for a 36th place finish. Freshman Brayden Bean finished 40th with a best mark by 1 minute, 9 seconds. Junior Tristan Kuhlman (43rd) had the most improved time with a personal record 2 minutes and 40 seconds faster than his previous mark, while fellow junior Casen Hutfles (45th) beat his by 16 seconds.
