CLINTON, Miss. | The No. 14 UAH men's cross country team earned second at the 2024 Gulf South Conference Men's Cross Country Championships on Saturday at the Choctaw Trails with Sam Wilhelm winning the 8k competition for the second year in a row.
 
Wilhelm paced the field at a time of 23:52.90 for first place overall, as his clocking on Saturday was the second-fastest in program history at the GSC Championships.
