GREENVILLE, S.C. -- North Carolina State swept the NCAA Southeast Region Cross Country Championship Saturday at Furman, winning the women's race by four points over second place North Carolina, and taking the men's race by 42 points over William & Mary.
On the men's side, N.C. State place all five scorers in the top 11 and took individual spots three, four, and five in scoring 30 points. William and Mary's Sean Graham was the individual champion, posting a time of 30:15 over the 10K course.
Only four points separated the third-place Demon Deacons of Wake Forest from the fourth place Blue Devils of Duke (82-86), so the NCAA Committee will have to decide on Monday whether to award either, one, or both of these teams at-large bids.
No matter what the NCAA committee decides, Duke's Sean Kelly and Chris Williams and Wake Forest's Chris Estawanik and Nathan Sisco will advance to Nationals - they were recipients of automatic individual bids on Saturday.
Campbell freshman Michael Earle placed 91st in the 206-runner men's race with a 10,000-meter time of 33:13. Clarence Williams also competed for the Camels, placing 156th at 34:44.
The NCAA Division I Men's and Women's Cross Country Championship is will take place on the Furman Golf Course on the 19th. Admission is $3 for adults and $2 for children. The men's 10K race will start at 11 a.m. with the women's 6K slated for 12:15 p.m.
