The Princeton cross country teams returned home to their new home course at the West Windsor Fields and competed at the Old Nassau Run Saturday morning along with runners from Columbia, Lehigh and Penn.
In the 6.1K women's race, Princeton runners took the first five spots for collegiate runners, with Kim Bonner finishing in first place in a time of 22.46.3. Bonner and Jen Johnson, who finished second in 22:58, were the two runners to complete the race in less than 23:00.
Rachel Farnsworth, Ali Warren and Lisa Burkholder were the other three top-five finishers for the Tigers in the race.
In the 8K men's race, Tim Branigan and Eric Beights finished 2-3 for the Tigers behind race winner Alan Weeth of Columbia. Dylan Cater, Tom Yersak and Ted Price also finished in the top 10 in the race for Princeton.
Branigan finished just three seconds behind the winning time in 25:16, while Beights' time was 25:20.
Princeton will compete at the NCAA District Championships next Saturday at Lock Haven University. The top two teams at that event qualify for the NCAA championship meet in Indiana Oct. 20.
