BRIDGEPORT, W.Va. – The Glenville State Men's Cross Country team was selected seventh in the Mountain East conference preseason poll, the league announced today.

UC received 97 total points, along with seven first place votes. Behind them is Davis & Elkins, receiving 94 points and four first place votes.
Coach Dan Meyers is returning for his fifth season leading the Pioneers as they look to improve upon a predicted seventh place finish in the preseason poll.
