MADISON, S.D. -- For the fourth time in his Bruin career, senior Richard Marcoux has been named the North Star Athletic Association Men's Cross Country Runner of the Week for his performance at the season-opening Augustana Twilight Meet in Sioux Falls, S.D. 

Marcoux ran to an eye-opening 39th place finish, covering the four-loop four-mile course in 20:25.8. Marcoux was the second NAIA finisher, just two seconds behind Jon Mahoney of Midland University. He placed 39th overall out of 358 competitors, spanning all divisions of NCAA, NAIA, and JUCO.
