They
were ranked #6 coming in, but Michigan finished fourth here...
|
...with
232 points, ahead of Colorado's 269.

|
After
winning back-to-back titles in 2001 and 2002 BYU fell nine points...
|
...
shy of a three-peat here, scoring 128 points. BYU's scorers were...

Stanford
University, the 2003 NCAA Cross Country Champions.
|
Last
year in Terre Haute, a scoring glitch caused the announcer...
|
...to
mistakenly say that unofficially, Stanford had won the title. It
turned out...
|
...that
one of BYU's scorers hadn't been counted, and upon recounting, Stanford...
|
...had
finished second. This year, it was official, Stanford won their
first title since 1996.
