The American River College Men's Cross Country program closed out the 2023 season with a 7th place team placing at the 3C2A State Championships! After working hard all summer and fall, the beavers went into the final race of the season looking to finish strong with another Top 10 finish at the state meet. After dealing with some sickness and injuries the prvious weeks, the team pulled it all together at the right time and earned a 7th place team finish! This is the 19th Top 10 finish in the last 20 seasons and 16th in a row! This consistency of top finishes at the state meet leads all schools in the state over the 20 year stretch and years in a row. 

The Beavers were led by Mateo Delgadillo who finished 8th in 20:32 to earn All-American honors! He was followed by Ethan Vahle who finished 39th in 21:29, Roman Walton who finished in 58th in 21:44 for 58th, and Nathan Diaz who finished in 59th in 21:49. The scoring was rounded out by Brian Fackert who finished in 139th in 23:04. 

The Beavers now get to rest up after a great season before starting to prepare for the spring track season.
