AUGUSTA, Kan. - The Omaha cross country team earned its first win of the season in the J.K. Gold Classic hosted by Wichita State on Saturday.
The meet was a double-dual format, pitting the four Division I teams against one another in head-to-head scoring. The Mavericks beat Oral Roberts, 18-45, while losing to Wichita State, 15-49, and dropping the other dual to Kansas State, 18-50.
For the second week in a row, Kristin Rogers led the Mavs with a time of 14:57.26 over the four kilometer course.

Katarina Zarudnaya, running her first race of the year for the Mavs, was fourth at 15:31.69, and MiKayla Peck completed the scoring, running fifth with a time of 15:43.93.
