Elijah Oudyn has also had an impressive campaign, landing inside the top-15 at the season opener at Stephen F. Austin and the Belhaven Invitational. He likewise had a personal best time in College Station.

Freshman Simon Nakamura has been an excellent addition to the team this season, recording two top-20 finishes and a 26:43.3 at Texas A&M. Sophomore Alexander Hoksbergen has also contributed a pair of top-20 finishes on the season.

WOMEN'S PREVIEW

LeTourneau has earned three top-5 finishes on the women's side as well, with the best finish being second place at the Belhaven Invitational (Oct. 4). 

The YellowJackets have been paced by Alayna Galloway, who is coming off of a personal best 25:00.5 6k time at Texas A&M on Oct. 17. Galloway has finished inside the top 20 on two occasions this season.

Right behind Galloway has been Madelyn DeLosSantos, who finished in the top-25 in two meets this season. Her 25:42.9 time at the Arturo Barrios Invitational was a 6k personal best.

Peyton Chaney and freshman Rivkah Schmickle has been rising up the charts the last couple of races for LeTourneau, with both shattering their previous 6k personal bests on Oct. 17. Senior Hope Greenwald -- a two-time all-conference honoree -- will also compete in her final conference championship meet.

Both squads look to make some noise in their first season at the SCAC Championships, and their excellent times at Texas A&M hope to provide some momentum heading into the competitive field.
