STILLWATER, Okla. – Duke sophomore Amina Maatoug culminated an outstanding inaugural cross country season at the NCAA Cross Country Championships on Saturday with a 28th-place finish and USTFCCCA All-America Honors.
The Leiden, Netherlands product finished the highly-competitive 6K race in 20:04.6 to become the 12th Duke woman all-time, and first since Juliet Bottorff did so in 2013, to be tabbed a USTFCCCA All-American.
After earning an at-large bid to the national meet following a ninth-place finish at the NCAA Southeast Regional a week ago, senior Zach Kinne also closed the door on a solid cross country season of his own as he clocked 30:23.8 to place 120th in the loaded men's 10K race.
QUOTES
"Today was a fantastic performance for both individuals representing Duke at the NCAA Championships. Zach was hoping to finish right around top 100 and Amina's goal from the start of the season was All-American, so it is great to see both individuals execute their goals. This was an impressive way for Amina to finish her first season of NCAA Cross Country and capping off a phenomenal season for her. I'm proud of both of their efforts and their ability to compete well at the highest stage. It will be fun to see what these two can gain from this experience as we transition to track season" – head coach Angela Reckart

With the 2022 cross country season now complete, Duke turns its attention to the 2022-23 track & field season, beginning with the JDL Early Bird Invitational slated for Dec. 3 in Winston-Salem.
