So proud of our cross country teams! This program is only three years old and has made huge strides in that time. It was an honor to join them on the hill.
This week, #SaltLakeCC’s Cross Country teams were honored on the floor of the Utah Senate, receiving deserved applause from the state legislature for their recent national championships. Way to go, Bruins! Thank you for representing us so well on the state and national stages. #slccbruins #bruinfam
