Kenny Farris and Kevin McCarthy combined to claim first place with a time of 28:52. The race features two runners combining for a total of six miles in the men's race and four miles in the women's race. Each runner completes one mile, then hands the baton to their teammate, alternating miles to the completion of the race. The top-three pairs for each school earn points in the overall team scoring based upon their finishing place, with the lowest score claiming the team competition. Farris and McCarthy were 45 seconds off the meet record of 28:07 set by John Poray and Patrick Hamilton from the University of Indianapolis in 2003.
