CEDARVILLE, Ohio – Freshman Clay Peets led the St. Bonaventure men's cross country team at the Atlantic 10 Championships Saturday morning held at Elvin R. King Cross Country Course.
The first-year Bonnies runner, a three-time A-10 Rookie of the Week, capped a strong debut season by completing the five-mile course in a time of 26:47.8 with the fastest time for a Bonnies men's runner in the championships since a 26:47.9 turned in by Joe Ferencik in 2015.
Junior Darion Gregory was second on the team with his effort of 26:54.3 over a course that was slowed by heavy rains a day earlier. Fifth-year senior Nathan Prisella finished out his cross country career with a run of 27:17.9.
Also in the lineup for St. Bonaventure were sophomores Zane Courtwright (27:38.6) and Brian Gleason (28:24.5) as well as freshman Colin McCarthy (29:27.4).
