Nick Hansen raced to second place at the Ken Weidt Classic and led Lawrence to the team title with an impressive total of 24 points. Hansen covered the 8,000-meter course in 26:30.8 to take second, and Lawrence completed its scoring by finishing fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh. The Vikings defeated the entire field of teams and Concordia Wisconsin was a distant second with 62 points. This was the top finish in an 8,000-meter race in Hansen's career and the second time he has finished second in an event, which he did at the 2024 Tom Barry Invitational at St. Norbert.
