Cross country and track & field ink 10 to 2021 class

NASHVILLE - The Lipscomb cross country and track and field programs have announced 10 signees to the 2021 class on Wednesday.

"We are very excited to add 10 new athletes to our program," Director of Cross Country and Track and Field Nick Polk said. "This class gives us great depth and will immediately make us more competitive.

"This group was significantly impacted by Covid-19 in their ability to compete and in the recruiting process. I applaud their efforts in the process and am thankful they chose Lipscomb University as the place for each of them. We're blessed to have as talented a group of student-athletes in the program as we've ever had and are very excited about the future."
