Conor Lanz's 2006 Cross Country Journal
As one of four seniors on the AU
men's cross country team, Conor Lanz will play a valuable role in
leading the team to potentially its fifth consecutive Patriot
League title and third consecutive NCAA Championships appearance.
Lanz returns as a top-five member of last year's squad and
All-Patriot League First Team selection. His personal bests include
a 3:47.36 1500 meters (approximately equivalent to a 4:05 mile) and
a 14:33 5000 meter best. In addition, Lanz has been a standout in
the classroom, graduating a year early with honors and is now
currently enrolled in the Master's program for political science.
Lanz will be giving updates throughout the season - as he did in
2005 - as the team continues to rewrite school and league
history.
