ROCHESTER, N.Y. – Sophomore Clay Peets set another school record, this time breaking the old 8K mark by 10 seconds as the St. Bonaventure men's cross country team placed fourth out of 15 schools Saturday morning at the Harry F. Anderson Invitational.

St. Bonaventure finished with 111 team points, behind only Geneseo (24), Cortland (97) and host Roberts Wesleyan (110).

Peets established his second school record mark in as many meets as he also broke the Bona's record in the 5K in the season-opening Little Three Championship.

The Akron, Ohio native crossed the finish line with a time of 25:26.2 to break the previous record time of 25:36.6 held by William Delaney since 2019. Peets finished fourth overall in the field of 174 competitors and ran a mile pace of 5:08. He also bettered his time at the same course a season ago by over 45 seconds.

Senior Darion Gregory also PR'ed with a top-10 program time.

Gregory finished with an effort of 26:35.0 to move into eighth place in school history, besting his previous fast mark by over a second.

Two Bonnies freshmen also cracked into the top-15 in the all-time individual record book: Aiden Scattergood posted a time of 26:36.6 to move to 11^th in Bonnies history. Classmate Alex Ryan was close behind at 26:42.6 to move into 13^th.

Sophomore Colin McCarthy wrapped the team's fast five with his run of 27:04.3.

In all, 10 Bonnies recorded personal best times.

The Bonnies are back in action Saturday, Oct. 1 at the Mike Woods Invitational hosted by SUNY Geneseo.
