11/14/2025 3:53 PM | Cross Country
The No. 22-ranked Utah cross country team finished fifth-overall with a pair of top-25 individual finishers.
SALT LAKE CITY – The No. 22-ranked Utah cross country team finished fifth-overall at the NCAA Mountain Regional and was led by Erin Vringer's top-10 finish at the Regional Athletic Complex.
Â
Vringer, like she consistently has all season, bided her time and passed a slew of runners in the final 3000m of the race to place eighth-overall with a run of 20:23.5 – which was also her highest finish at a regional race. This is the second time the Saint John, New Brunswick, Canada, product has paced the Women of Utah this season.
Â
Annastasia Peters was the next Ute to cross the finish line, posting a time of 21:11.4 for 25th-overall as Utah's second scorer. Holladay native Millie Wilcox was right on her tails, crossing the finish line at 21:13.5 for 26th-place after passing four runners in the final kilometer at her first-ever NCAA Cross Country Regional after spending the last three seasons with the sprints team. It also marks the third-straight meet that Wilcox has finished as Utah's third scorer this season.
Â
Lindsey Peters (21:18.0) and Kyla Martin (21:20.3) weren't far back from Wilcox, crossing the finish line seconds after one another for 30th and 31st-place – respectively. Meanwhile, Freshman Emily Junginger (21:25.2) and Bri Rinn (21:43.1) rounded things out for the Women of Utah.
Â
UP NEXT
The Utes await their fate with Selection Saturday set to begin at 3 p.m. (MDT) on NCAA.com to see if they will qualify for their eighth NCAA Championships or not.
