In his first collegiate race with the SUNY Canton men's cross country team Austin Johnston (Auburn, NY) posted a sixth place finish to lead the Roos to fourth place at the second annual Kangaroo Invitational on Saturday.
Johnston placed sixth individually out of the 51 runner field crossing the finish line of the 5-kilometer course in a time of 17:42. Classmate Tom Lauzon (Bombay, NY) turned in a 23rd place performance in a time of 18:59, while Shawn Deibel (Albion, NY) finished 23 second behind Lauzon.
Andrew Wilson (Bronx, NY) and Bryant Cotey (Norwood, NY) rounded out the scoring runners for the Roos in 42nd and 45th places, respectively. Freshmen Matthew Lindke (Webster, NY) and Josh May (Glenville, NY) also turned in solid performances in their first races with the Roos.
Clarkson University took home the team title with 25 points ahead of second place SUNY Plattsburgh (46). Johnson State's 98 points narrowly eclipsed the Roos 104. However, SUNY Canton was able to hold off SUNY Potsdam (108) who finished in the fifth and final spot.
The SUNY Canton men's cross country team returns to the trails on Sunday, September 7 when they travel to Castleton, VT to take part in the Castleton State Invitational.
