MSSU's Kimutai named MIAA Runner of the Week, already received national honor

(From MSSU Lions Athletic News)

Already the Division II National Runner of the Week, Gidieon Kimutai was named the MIAA Men's Cross Country Runner of the Week today.

Kimutai (Eldoiet, Kenya,) wins his third MIAA award after he won his third event of the year this past week, taking the individual title at the Lewis University Crossover. Kimutai has won every event he's entered this season after taking home the title at SBU and at the Southern Stampede.








The sophomore completed a wet and muddy 8K course in 25:07.2 for a one second victory over Tanner Chada of Grand Valley State, who was the National Athlete of the Week on September 30.

The Lions and Kimutai will be back in action on October 26 when they host the 2019 MIAA Cross Country Championships at the Tom Rutledge Cross Country Course.
