Big 12 and Pac-12 honors. Jones is the first CU runner to earn Pac-12 Cross Country Athlete of the Year after winning the championship last Friday in 18:57.3. Jones pulled away from Neale and course-record holder Katie Rainsberger over the final 100 meters for the victory. It marked Jones’ third Conference title in the calendar year as she also captured the 1,500- and 5,000-meter crowns at the 2017 Pac-12 Outdoor Track & Field Championships. The Buffs also had seven individual harriers, four men and three women, named to the 2017 All-Pac-12 Teams. Jones earned first team honors, while senior Kaitlyn Benner and sophomore Sage Hurta were named to the second team. On the men’s side, junior Ryan Forsyth and sophomore Joe Klecker were named for the first team, while redshirt freshman Eduardo Herrera and senior Adam Peterman were selected to the second team. All-Pac-12 teams are determined by an athlete’s placing at the Pac-12 Championship. First team members include the first through seventh place finishers, while those who place eighth through 14th earn a position on the second team. USTFCCCA FEMALE ATHLETE OF THE WEEK: Days after winning her first Pac-12 Cross Country Championship, junior Dani Jones was named the USTFCCCA Division I Women’s Athlete of the Week. She is the first Buff to ever record the honor. In the USTFCCCA Poll, the Colorado women moved back up to first, while the men held steady at fifth. Jones won the 2017 championship in exciting fashion. She surged ahead of Washington’s Amy-Eloise Neale, the 2016 champion, and Oregon’s Katie Rainsberger, the course record-holder, to win the individual crown in 18:57.3. Jones is the first Buff to win an individual cross country title in the Pac-12 and first since Jenny Barringer (Simpson) to win an individual conference title since 2009. Jones led the CU women to their third straight title, defeating Oregon 53-71, which helped to propel them up the USTFCCCA Poll from third to first. FOUR IN SEVEN YEARS: The CU women’s team has won four of the seven Pac-12 titles since joining the league in 2011. The Buffs won the inagural title in 2011, defeating Washington 50-73. They won again in 2015, this time besting Oregon 4551. CU made it two straight in 2016 when the Buffs handily defeated Washington 33-74. CU made it a three-peat when they defeated Oregon 53-71 in 2017. HIGHEST PAC-12 FINISH: When Joe Klecker recorded a second place finish at the Pac-12 Championships on Oct. 27, he became the highest placing Buff ever at the conference championship. Prior to Klecker’s runner-up performance, the best finish was Ben Saarel’s third-place finish in 2016. It’s not the best finish in overall conference history for the Buffs though as several won individual conference titles prior to CU joining the Pac-12. THE STREAK IS OVER: After winning the first six Pac-12 titles since the league expanded to 12 teams in 2011, the Buffs saw their streak come to an end on Oct. 27 as Stanford bested CU 41-47. The Cardinal had three of the top four finishers, which ultimately helped SU take down the Buffs. LEADING THE WAY: Since joining the conference in 2011, the women’s team has more Pac-12 Championships (four) than any other team, with Oregon winning two and Arizona one. MORE THAN 70 PERCENT: The Buffs have won 10 of 14 possible cross country championships since 2011, which is .714 percent. The men have come away with six titles, while the women have won four.

PAC-12 CROSS COUNTRY SCHOLAR-ATHLETE OF THE YEAR Colorado senior Kaitlyn Benner has been named the Pac-12 Women’s Cross Country Scholar-Athlete of the Year, the league office announced on Friday prior to the racing of the conference championships. The award, which is presented in each of the 23 sports the Pac-12 sponsors, was established to honor collegiate student-athletes that are standouts both academically and in their sports discipline. Benner is a two-time NCAA Cross Country AllAmerican and is majoring in chemical and biological engineering. Through her first six semesters at CU, she has recorded a 3.93 grade point average. Benner has been a member of the Dean’s list all six semesters and has recorded a 4.0 GPA three times. She has been a Pac-12 All-Academic First Team member twice and a USTFCCCA All-Academic selection three times. The Superior, Colo., native has been named to the All-Pac-12 First Team twice; she was the runner-up in 2015 and was fourth in 2016. Benner has also earned all-region recognition all three years – her highest finish at regionals was a second-place finish in 2015. In her time with the Buffs, she has helped the team to back-to-back Pac-12 team titles (2015 and 16), as well as an NCAA runner-up finish in 2015 and a third-place finish in 2016. This is the second straight year the Buffs have earned the honor on the women’s side as Erin Clark was the women’s recipient in 2016. In total, four Buffs have earned the award in the last three years. Morgan Pearson (2015) and Ben Saarel (2016) won the men’s honor back-to-back years.
CSU RECAP: CU started the season off on a strong note, winning the men’s and women’s team titles at the Colorado State Invitational on Sept. 1. The men’s team handily defeated the rest of the field, totaling just 22 points, while the runner-up, Air Force, was second with 66 points. The women’s race was much closer with the Buffs besting Colorado State by one point (35-36). Ethan Gonzales won the men’s race, finishing the 5k race in 14:51. Brianna Schwartz led the women’s team, placing fourth in 17:37. CSU INVITE RECAP: Both the men and women won the CSU Invite on Sept. 1 to start the 2017 season. Ethan Gonzales won the individual title in the men’s race to lead the Buffaloes as they recorded 22 points. Brianna Schwartz led the women’s team with a fourth place finish as they tallied a score of 35 points. RETURNING ALL-AMERICANS: The Buffaloes return six All-Americans this season, four women and two men. Senior Kaitlyn Benner is a two-time All-American, while juniors Mackenzie Caldwell and Dani Jones, along with sophomore Sage Hurta, all earned the honor in 2016 for the first time. For the men, junior John Dressel is a two-time All-American and sophomore Joe Klecker was a 2016 AllAmerican. WHO’S BACK: Colorado returns a lot of talent from the 2016 team, especially the women’s team. Besides the four All-Americans, junior Makena Morley and sophomore Tabor Scholl both scored for the Buffs in the post season. On the men’s side, seniors Christian Martin and Zach Perrin, along with juniors Ryan Forsyth and Ethan Gonzales return as 2016 postseason scorers with Dressel and Klecker.

HEAD COACH MARK WETMORE THE MAN, THE MYTH, THE REALITY: Colorado head coach Mark Wetmore enters his 26th season at Colorado, his 23rd as head coach. He became CU’s sixth head cross country and track and field coach on November 6, 1995. Wetmore is the only Division I cross country coach to win all four NCAA titles – men’s and women’s team and men’s and women’s individual – at the same school. Wetmore’s squads have won seven national cross country titles since 2000. The women won in 2000 while the men won the following year. Both teams captured the championship again in 2004 (CU became only the third school to win both championships in the same year). The men won again in 2006, 2013 and 2014. Wetmore has coached Adam Goucher (1998), Jorge Torres (2002) and Dathan Ritzenhein (2003) to men’s individual cross country titles, while Kara Grgas-Wheeler won the 2000 women’s crown. CU athletes have earned 122 All-American cross country honors during his tenure. Wetmore has been named the NCAA Women’s Cross Country Coach of the Year twice (’00 and ’04) and the NCAA Men’s Cross Country Coach of the Year three times (‘06, ‘13 and ‘14). He is a 30-time conference coach of the year and in 2014, USA Track and Field named him the USA Co-Coach of the Year. In addition to national titles, his teams won 23 Big 12 Cross Country Team Titles (11 women’s, 12 men’s), 16 individual Big 12 Cross Country Titles and Wetmore was named Big 12 Conference Cross Country Coach of the Year 19 times. He was the winningest Big 12 Conference head coach among all sports when CU left the conference in 2011. CU joined the Pac-12 Conference in the fall of 2011 and Wetmore’s teams won the inaugural Pac-12 men’s and women’s titles – the first Pac-12 Championships in any sport. His men have won the first six titles after joining the league in 2011 and his women have won four (2011, ‘15, ‘16 and ‘17). On the track, Wetmore’s athletes have had a strong presence at the conference, national and professional levels. They’ve captured 100 individual conference titles, two conference team titles, 16 NCAA individual titles and earned 183 All-American honors. CU athletes have broken seven collegiate middle and long distance records. CU runners’ success at the professional and postcollegiate level is unmatched by any university: over two dozen Buff grads have signed professional contracts. They’ve combined for more than 49 USA titles in cross country, track & field and road racing. Since 2000, 10 CU athletes or graduates have earned 19 U.S. Olympic Team berths at distances from 1,500-meters through the marathon. Fourteen current and former Buffs have earned 31 spots on U.S. World Championship Track Teams and 25 have combined for 61 berths on U.S. World Championship Cross Country Teams. Since 2004, CU graduates have won seven medals in distance running at World Championships – Shayne Culpepper (bronze, 2004 Indoor 3k), Kara Goucher (silver, 2007 10k), Dathan Ritzenhein (bronze, 2009 Half Marathon), Jenny Simpson (gold, 2011 1,500m and silver, 2013 and 2017 1,500m) and Emma Coburn (gold, 2017 steeplechase). Coburn (steeplechase) and Simpson (1,500) became the first to win Olympic medals, both bronze, at the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio. They were the first American women to medal in their respective events. Charles Mark Wetmore graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in English Education from Rutgers in 1978 before receiving his Master’s in movement sciences from Columbia in 1998. He lives in the mountains west of Boulder.

Big 12 and Pac-12 honors. Jones is the first CU runner to earn Pac-12 Cross Country Athlete of the Year after winning the championship last Friday in 18:57.3. Jones pulled away from Neale and course-record holder Katie Rainsberger over the final 100 meters for the victory. It marked Jones’ third Conference title in the calendar year as she also captured the 1,500- and 5,000-meter crowns at the 2017 Pac-12 Outdoor Track & Field Championships. The Buffs also had seven individual harriers, four men and three women, named to the 2017 All-Pac-12 Teams. Jones earned first team honors, while senior Kaitlyn Benner and sophomore Sage Hurta were named to the second team. On the men’s side, junior Ryan Forsyth and sophomore Joe Klecker were named for the first team, while redshirt freshman Eduardo Herrera and senior Adam Peterman were selected to the second team. All-Pac-12 teams are determined by an athlete’s placing at the Pac-12 Championship. First team members include the first through seventh place finishers, while those who place eighth through 14th earn a position on the second team. USTFCCCA FEMALE ATHLETE OF THE WEEK: Days after winning her first Pac-12 Cross Country Championship, junior Dani Jones was named the USTFCCCA Division I Women’s Athlete of the Week. She is the first Buff to ever record the honor. In the USTFCCCA Poll, the Colorado women moved back up to first, while the men held steady at fifth. Jones won the 2017 championship in exciting fashion. She surged ahead of Washington’s Amy-Eloise Neale, the 2016 champion, and Oregon’s Katie Rainsberger, the course record-holder, to win the individual crown in 18:57.3. Jones is the first Buff to win an individual cross country title in the Pac-12 and first since Jenny Barringer (Simpson) to win an individual conference title since 2009. Jones led the CU women to their third straight title, defeating Oregon 53-71, which helped to propel them up the USTFCCCA Poll from third to first. FOUR IN SEVEN YEARS: The CU women’s team has won four of the seven Pac-12 titles since joining the league in 2011. The Buffs won the inagural title in 2011, defeating Washington 50-73. They won again in 2015, this time besting Oregon 4551. CU made it two straight in 2016 when the Buffs handily defeated Washington 33-74. CU made it a three-peat when they defeated Oregon 53-71 in 2017. HIGHEST PAC-12 FINISH: When Joe Klecker recorded a second place finish at the Pac-12 Championships on Oct. 27, he became the highest placing Buff ever at the conference championship. Prior to Klecker’s runner-up performance, the best finish was Ben Saarel’s third-place finish in 2016. It’s not the best finish in overall conference history for the Buffs though as several won individual conference titles prior to CU joining the Pac-12. THE STREAK IS OVER: After winning the first six Pac-12 titles since the league expanded to 12 teams in 2011, the Buffs saw their streak come to an end on Oct. 27 as Stanford bested CU 41-47. The Cardinal had three of the top four finishers, which ultimately helped SU take down the Buffs. LEADING THE WAY: Since joining the conference in 2011, the women’s team has more Pac-12 Championships (four) than any other team, with Oregon winning two and Arizona one. MORE THAN 70 PERCENT: The Buffs have won 10 of 14 possible cross country championships since 2011, which is .714 percent. The men have come away with six titles, while the women have won four.

PAC-12 CROSS COUNTRY SCHOLAR-ATHLETE OF THE YEAR Colorado senior Kaitlyn Benner has been named the Pac-12 Women’s Cross Country Scholar-Athlete of the Year, the league office announced on Friday prior to the racing of the conference championships. The award, which is presented in each of the 23 sports the Pac-12 sponsors, was established to honor collegiate student-athletes that are standouts both academically and in their sports discipline. Benner is a two-time NCAA Cross Country AllAmerican and is majoring in chemical and biological engineering. Through her first six semesters at CU, she has recorded a 3.93 grade point average. Benner has been a member of the Dean’s list all six semesters and has recorded a 4.0 GPA three times. She has been a Pac-12 All-Academic First Team member twice and a USTFCCCA All-Academic selection three times. The Superior, Colo., native has been named to the All-Pac-12 First Team twice; she was the runner-up in 2015 and was fourth in 2016. Benner has also earned all-region recognition all three years – her highest finish at regionals was a second-place finish in 2015. In her time with the Buffs, she has helped the team to back-to-back Pac-12 team titles (2015 and 16), as well as an NCAA runner-up finish in 2015 and a third-place finish in 2016. This is the second straight year the Buffs have earned the honor on the women’s side as Erin Clark was the women’s recipient in 2016. In total, four Buffs have earned the award in the last three years. Morgan Pearson (2015) and Ben Saarel (2016) won the men’s honor back-to-back years.
CSU RECAP: CU started the season off on a strong note, winning the men’s and women’s team titles at the Colorado State Invitational on Sept. 1. The men’s team handily defeated the rest of the field, totaling just 22 points, while the runner-up, Air Force, was second with 66 points. The women’s race was much closer with the Buffs besting Colorado State by one point (35-36). Ethan Gonzales won the men’s race, finishing the 5k race in 14:51. Brianna Schwartz led the women’s team, placing fourth in 17:37. CSU INVITE RECAP: Both the men and women won the CSU Invite on Sept. 1 to start the 2017 season. Ethan Gonzales won the individual title in the men’s race to lead the Buffaloes as they recorded 22 points. Brianna Schwartz led the women’s team with a fourth place finish as they tallied a score of 35 points. RETURNING ALL-AMERICANS: The Buffaloes return six All-Americans this season, four women and two men. Senior Kaitlyn Benner is a two-time All-American, while juniors Mackenzie Caldwell and Dani Jones, along with sophomore Sage Hurta, all earned the honor in 2016 for the first time. For the men, junior John Dressel is a two-time All-American and sophomore Joe Klecker was a 2016 AllAmerican. WHO’S BACK: Colorado returns a lot of talent from the 2016 team, especially the women’s team. Besides the four All-Americans, junior Makena Morley and sophomore Tabor Scholl both scored for the Buffs in the post season. On the men’s side, seniors Christian Martin and Zach Perrin, along with juniors Ryan Forsyth and Ethan Gonzales return as 2016 postseason scorers with Dressel and Klecker.

HEAD COACH MARK WETMORE THE MAN, THE MYTH, THE REALITY: Colorado head coach Mark Wetmore enters his 26th season at Colorado, his 23rd as head coach. He became CU’s sixth head cross country and track and field coach on November 6, 1995. Wetmore is the only Division I cross country coach to win all four NCAA titles – men’s and women’s team and men’s and women’s individual – at the same school. Wetmore’s squads have won seven national cross country titles since 2000. The women won in 2000 while the men won the following year. Both teams captured the championship again in 2004 (CU became only the third school to win both championships in the same year). The men won again in 2006, 2013 and 2014. Wetmore has coached Adam Goucher (1998), Jorge Torres (2002) and Dathan Ritzenhein (2003) to men’s individual cross country titles, while Kara Grgas-Wheeler won the 2000 women’s crown. CU athletes have earned 122 All-American cross country honors during his tenure. Wetmore has been named the NCAA Women’s Cross Country Coach of the Year twice (’00 and ’04) and the NCAA Men’s Cross Country Coach of the Year three times (‘06, ‘13 and ‘14). He is a 30-time conference coach of the year and in 2014, USA Track and Field named him the USA Co-Coach of the Year. In addition to national titles, his teams won 23 Big 12 Cross Country Team Titles (11 women’s, 12 men’s), 16 individual Big 12 Cross Country Titles and Wetmore was named Big 12 Conference Cross Country Coach of the Year 19 times. He was the winningest Big 12 Conference head coach among all sports when CU left the conference in 2011. CU joined the Pac-12 Conference in the fall of 2011 and Wetmore’s teams won the inaugural Pac-12 men’s and women’s titles – the first Pac-12 Championships in any sport. His men have won the first six titles after joining the league in 2011 and his women have won four (2011, ‘15, ‘16 and ‘17). On the track, Wetmore’s athletes have had a strong presence at the conference, national and professional levels. They’ve captured 100 individual conference titles, two conference team titles, 16 NCAA individual titles and earned 183 All-American honors. CU athletes have broken seven collegiate middle and long distance records. CU runners’ success at the professional and postcollegiate level is unmatched by any university: over two dozen Buff grads have signed professional contracts. They’ve combined for more than 49 USA titles in cross country, track & field and road racing. Since 2000, 10 CU athletes or graduates have earned 19 U.S. Olympic Team berths at distances from 1,500-meters through the marathon. Fourteen current and former Buffs have earned 31 spots on U.S. World Championship Track Teams and 25 have combined for 61 berths on U.S. World Championship Cross Country Teams. Since 2004, CU graduates have won seven medals in distance running at World Championships – Shayne Culpepper (bronze, 2004 Indoor 3k), Kara Goucher (silver, 2007 10k), Dathan Ritzenhein (bronze, 2009 Half Marathon), Jenny Simpson (gold, 2011 1,500m and silver, 2013 and 2017 1,500m) and Emma Coburn (gold, 2017 steeplechase). Coburn (steeplechase) and Simpson (1,500) became the first to win Olympic medals, both bronze, at the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio. They were the first American women to medal in their respective events. Charles Mark Wetmore graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in English Education from Rutgers in 1978 before receiving his Master’s in movement sciences from Columbia in 1998. He lives in the mountains west of Boulder.
