СÖíÊÓÆµ¹ÙÍøCollege to Introduce Women's Cross Country and Half Marathon in Fall of 2024

The Cobras will compete at the NJCAA Division II level in Women's Cross Country and Half Marathon

Champaign, Ill.– СÖíÊÓÆµ¹ÙÍøCollege and the СÖíÊÓÆµ¹ÙÍøCollege Athletic Department are proud to announce that the Cobras will be adding Women's Cross Country and Half Marathon to its list of sports in the fall of 2024. СÖíÊÓÆµ¹ÙÍøwill compete at the NJCAA Division II level in Women's Cross Country and Half Marathon. 

This is the first adjustment in the sports offered by the СÖíÊÓÆµ¹ÙÍøCollege Athletic Department since Women's Cross Country was removed in 2000 and men's and women's soccer was added. The СÖíÊÓÆµ¹ÙÍøCollege Athletics Hall of Fame holds one former women's cross country runner, Jodi Huddlestun Clark, who was the NJCAA Division II National Champion in 1999 with the Cobras.

"We are excited to increase opportunities for female student-athletes to excel at СÖíÊÓÆµ¹ÙÍøCollege," Vice President for Student Services Michael Trame said in a statement. "Women's cross country is a popular, successful sport in the District 505 high schools. We hope this new program will attract talent from local District 505 high schools to join the СÖíÊÓÆµ¹ÙÍøCobras family and our vibrant campus community."
