As one the most prestigious regular season meets, the Seminoles battled against 32 of the 60 teams ranked in the USTFCCCA National poll.
"It was a great performance by the women's team today highlighted by Bieke Schipperen," said FSU Director of Cross Country Matt Kane.

Overall, I feel like it puts us in a really good position as we head into the second half of the season."
"I was really proud of how the women raced today," said FSU women's head coach Cody Halsey. " Last year at this race we were 30th as a team, today we finished 16th. All a testament to the work our returners and new people have been putting in day in and day out. I'm really excited for the rest of their season together."
"Bieke led the way finishing 17th overall with a time just under a minute and a half faster than last year," added Halsey "It was so rewarding to see what we both knew she was capable of come to fruition. I couldn't be more excited about the rest of her season. It was really incredible to see her take charge and run with poise and aggression from the start."
The Noles placed 16th as a team (409), securing a win over ranked opponent Iowa State (No.30). and Michigan (RV).
Racing in a field that contained 190 student-athletes, Bieke Schipperen led the women's 6k, crossing the line in 17th with a time of 20:30.2, marking the first top 20 individual finish in her career.

"Overall, really satisfied with how the men executed the race in Wisconsin today, "said assistant coach Ian Frazier. "Today was all about learning the course and seeing where we stack up against the nation's best, and I think we did just that. Highlights include a very smart run by Kidus and a big finish from Matt Neill."
"Not only that, but nearly every guy out there had a big PB on the course over last year," Frazier added. "We still have a few things to clean up late in the race, but once we do that, I'm confident that we will be in exciting spot heading into pre-nationals."

Agnes McTighe followed in 29th, clocking a lifetime best of 20:01.0. Elizabeth Barlow was the third Nole to cross the line in 64th with a personal best time of 20:22.5. Brooke Mullins followed in 82nd with a personal best of 20:30.1. Anna Sentner was the fifth FSU scorer at 21:06.9 (164th).

"Behind him almost every guy ran a 30-40 second course best, proving that we're still on the right path," added Frazier. "Once we clean up that final 2k of the race and get Kidus and Matt back in the lineup, I know we will cement ourselves as a top 20 team nationally."

McTighe, Schipperen Captures All-ACC Honors.
CARY, N.C.- The No.13/NR Florida State Cross Country teams competed in the ACC Championship on Friday morning at WakeMed Park in Cary, North Carolina.
Agnes McTighe and Bieke Schipperen captured All-ACC honors for the women's team in the 6k by finishing in the top 21 of the race.
"I think we walk away from today with mixed feelings," said FSU head coach Cody Halsey. "Watching Agnes and Bieke finish All-ACC was a massive bright spot. Bieke was 79th this time last year and Agnes was still progressing from a knee surgery. Having a front row seat to their glow up has been incredibly rewarding. Those two gave everything they had for themselves and for our team. They both had their highest individual finish in an unprecedented deep conference meet. That's all you can ask for."
The 13th-ranked women's team has now crowned at least one All-ACC runner in every race since 2008, and at least two in four of the last five.
McTighe secured her second conference honor of her career after finishing in ninth with a career best time of 19:40.6.
Schipperen finished 16th with a time of 20:02.5, collecting All-ACC for the first time in her career. Elizabeth Barlow followed in 32nd with a time 20:22.8. Brooke Mullins competed in her first ACC Championship placing 52nd with a time 20:40.3. Anna Sentner was the fifth FSU scorer in 85th with a time 21:06.1.
The women's team placed seventh with a total of 190 points, improving from finishing 11th in 2023.
"As far as a full team, I think we are better than what we showed today," added Halsey. "Not every race will be your best. Not every day will go the way you want. All you can do is try and make some adjustments, lean on each other and get back to work. I believe we will get it right in two weeks. This is one of the best teams in the NCAA. I wholeheartedly believe that. I'm looking forward to our next opportunity at home."
The men's team was led by Joesph Farly, who finished just outside of All-ACC honors placing 25th with a career best of 23:06.9. In his third ACCs, Zach Leachman placed 62nd with a career best time of 23:40.3. Zachary Cloud was the third FSU runner, clocking a time of 23:41.3. Lucas Bouquot added a personal best time of 24:03.2. Kaden Levings rounded out the scoring for the Seminoles in 90th with a career best time of 24:06.8.
"It was a solid day for the Seminoles today out at ACCs," said assistant coach Ian Frazier. The guys did a great job of executing a conservative first half of the race before putting a big press home to the finish. Joe Farly was the highlight of our crew, as a he nearly tabbed an ALL-ACC finish after DNFing the year prior. He's been a pillar of consistency for our team this year and I'm so excited for him to continue to lead our cew into the South Regional meet in two weeks."
The Noles placed 10th as a team with 296 points.
"I'm hopeful we can use this postive momentum to our advantage before we return to ARP. Go Noles," Frazier added.

FSU Captures Seven All-Region Honors.
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - The No.24/NV Florida State Cross Country teams competed at the NCAA South Regional Championship at Apalachee Regional Park on Friday morning. Using the home course advantage, the Seminoles earned seven USTFCCCA All-Region honors.

I'm beyond grateful for their trust in each other as well as what we do, day in and day out."
FSU placed third with 106 points, finishing behind No.18 Florida and ahead of No.16 Tennessee.
"We couldn't have done it without all the support. The energy out there today was electric, it was incredible," added Halsey. "I was so touched at the backing of our athletic department as well as the FSU community. It played such a valuable part in our race."
Joe Farley led the Seminoles in the men's 10k, collecting his first career All-Region honor after placing 11th with a time of 30:16.7. Cloud finished 15th (30:27.1), followed Leachman in 17th (30:28.9). Coleman Cronk (30:59.2) in 33rd and Lucas Bouquot was the final FSU scorer in 36th (31:08.1).
"Couldn't be happier with how the guys executed," said assistant coach Ian Frazier. "We've trained all year to be a team that thrives with the extra challenge of the 10k, and today the men delivered on that. I'm also happy that they've reinvented themselves as a squad that moves with purpose and intention through the race, because that's what it takes to be an elite team in the NCAA. All told, these guys trusted themselves and ran with tremendous heart today."
The Seminoles placed fourth (112).

Rebecca Bergnes rounded out the scoring in 221st at 21:24.8.
"You know, there is nothing comparable to the national cross country championships," said FSU head coach Cody Halsey. "It's brutal out there, but it's also such a humbling and rewarding experience. It was a privilege to coach this group this year. They came a very long way in such a short span, from being ranked 11th in the ACC and 8th our region to 24th in the entire country."
FSU placed 24th with 572 points, wrapping up the season collecting two regular season wins and four all-region performers.
"This is a testament to their constant dedication to the goal, which was always to be here on this day," added Halsey. "We are so much closer to the end goal than we were a short year ago. I couldn't be more excited for the future of our program."
