// LAST TIME OUT
The last time Cincinnati competed with both full squads was back on Sept. 22 at the Roy Griak Invitational. Graduate student Maddie Walker and freshman Gianni Allwein led way for the Bearcats as Walker was the first Bearcat to cross the finish line in the women's gold 6k. She placed 48th with a time of 22:12.6.
On the men's side, Allwein used a big final kick, moving up 20 spots in the final 3,000m, to place 67th overall in the men's gold 8k with a time of 25:35.4. The Cincinnati native was the Bearcats' top finisher in his first career appearance as a Bearcat.
