Nico Young Named USTFCCCA National Athlete of the Week

FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. (March 26, 2024) – Nico Young was named USTFCCCA's National Athlete of the Week following his record-breaking performance at Sound Running's The TEN meet.
 
Young made his 10,000-meter debut, breaking the collegiate record in the event with a time of 26:52.72. His time hit the Olympic standard and earns him a new NAU and Big Sky record, while he is only one of five American men to break the 27-minute mark in the 10K.
 
This weekend the Lumberjacks will be back on the road as they send athletes to the Stanford Invitational on Mar. 29-30. Stay up to date with NAU Cross Country and Track & Field by following us on Twitter and Instagram.
