NEW ORLEANS, Louisiana - The Louisiana cross country team starts their season at the Battle for New Orleans on Friday evening. The women open the event at 5:15 p.m. with a 4K before the men get underway at 5:45 p.m. with a 5K.
The team returns leading runners Peyton Chiasson and Ella Segura, who recorded the fastest times for Louisiana in their last meet. Chiasson finished the NCAA Regional 10K with a time of 31:48.70 while Segura finished in 22:42.20 at the regional.
Louisiana returns four of their five scoring women from last season's regional, including Brooke Spalitta, Isabelle Russell, and Juliana Courville. On the men's side, two other Cajuns return looking to improve upon their seventh-place finish a year ago in Mason Haley and Owen Tauzin.
Louisiana had a strong close to the outdoor season in distance events. Alexandra Johnson set the program's 800 meter record (2:08.97), while Russell, Segura, Skylar Delgado, and Caroline Spalitta all set program top-10's in distance events. The men will be represented by Chiasson, Andrew Leck, Reece Shelby, John Walker McDonald, and Nathan Fontan who etched their names in the outdoor record book in the spring.
