UCM’s Manjrekar Earns All-American Honors

UC Merced's Sharvin Manjrekar capped an outstanding junior season with a 24:33 run at the NAIA National Championship on the Gans Creek Cross Country Course in Columbia, Mo., crossing the finish line in 30th place in a field of 326 of the nation's top runners.  Manjrekar, running in his third consecutive national event, earned NAIA All-American recognition for his Top 40 finish.  His 24:33 mark was not only a personal best, but it is the fastest time recorded in the California Pacific Conference this season and the ninth-best of all time.   UCM, which qualified as a team for the first time, finished 31st of 36 teams.
