2025 D3 XC Nationals Coaches Show
57m
Three programs have made it to the national meet for the first time in program history!
We speak to all of their coaches to learn more about their teams, their journeys, and what it means for their program.
We talked to Coach James O'Brien from Lebanon Valley, Coach Pete Carroll from Swarthmore, and Coach Feldman from Suffolk.
They all took different paths to get to the national meet. Lebanon Valley had a strong showing at Paul Short that boosted their resume and finished third at the Mid-Atlantic Regional.
Swarthmore won their first Metro regional title to automatically qualify. They had a tough middle part of the season but rallied late.
Suffolk finished 4th at the East regional and utilized an early season win vs. Brandeis to make it to the meet.

Coach O’Brien - 4:48
