On the women’s side, DAL AC’s Hannah Arseneault completed the year undefeated as she captured the ACAA Title in a time of 21:55 for the 5 K.  As a result, Hannah earned the title of ACAA Runner of the Year on the women’s side in addition to being a member of the ACAA All-Conference Team for Cross Country.  The DAL AC Women’s Team finished second.  On the men’s side, only two runners competed for the Rams and so did not qualify for a men’s team finish.
