BOULDER — The Colorado cross country program is set to race at the Gig Leadbetter Maverick Stampede on Friday under the lights at Lincoln Park Golf Course in Grand Junction, Colo.

What: Gig Leadbetter Maverick Stampede
When: Sept. 5 - Men, 6 p.m. | Women, 6:46 p.m.
Where: Lincoln Park Golf Course, Grand Junction, Colo.

Colorado will send five women and six men to the meet.

Men
Drew Costelow, Wilson Georges, Lukas Haug, Kole Mathison, Tanner Newkirk, Charles Robertson

Francini will make her Buffs debut, while the other four women will compete for the second time this season. On the men's side, Costelow will run his second race of the year while the rest of the group makes its season debut.

As of Thursday, the Buffs will face Colorado Mesa, Colorado Northwestern CC and Western Colorado. The women will run a 4k and the men a 6k. The course is a 2000-meter loop that is flat and primarily on fairways, with short patches through the rough on several holes. On the far side of the loop, athletes will run on a hard-packed gravel path with a short stretch of cement.

Last week
Colorado opened the season with a strong showing at the Wyoming Invite. In her collegiate debut, Ella Hagen paced the Buffs with a race-best time of 17:54.34 on the 5k course. Freshman Linda Weigang followed in 18:06.81, and Holly Barker finished in 18:18.57 in her first collegiate race. The trio helped CU to a runner-up finish with 44 points against Wyoming, Northern Colorado and Colorado State.

The men placed six in the top seven of the 46-runner field to capture the team title. Isaiah Givens led the way in 15:01.99, followed by Jake Liebert (15:08.53), James Overberg (15:08.86), Grady Rauba (15:13.61) and Dean Casey (15:16.18). Running unattached, freshman TJ Hansen crossed in 15:18.21.

Up next
Colorado will return to action Sept. 20 at the Roadrunner Invite in Denver.
