VERMONT OUTLOOK

• Zoey McNabb was honored as the America East Performer and Rookie of the Week for the second time this season following her record-breaking performance in Missouri at the Gans Creek Classic. The Catamount first year posted a 20:39.10 in the Women's 6k Gold Race notching the fastest 6k time in program history. She finished 45^th overall.
• William Locke is coming off his fastest race of the year and also paced the Catamount Men in the 2025 New England Championships. Locke's time of 24:29.20 in the Gans Creek Classic Gold 8k was five seconds quicker than his 2025 mark in this event which was quick enough for 11^th overall.
• Locke and the Vermont men finished in 8^th place out of 24 teams in last year's New England Championships. Tommy Wolfe and Bennett Harrison-Michaels also return from point scoring finishes.
• Both Darius Parker and Eamon Burke produced sub-25-minute times in Missouri and have each paced the Catamounts in events this fall. Parker led the way the Maribel Sanchez-Souther Invite and Burke won in his Catamount debut against UMass-Lowell.
• While McNabb set a program record in Missouri, Siena Stanley and Isabella Fryer also set personal bests in the event for the Vermont women. Stanley clocked a 21:06.30 in the 6k for a career best time. She was Vermont's top-finisher in the 2025 America East Championship 5k event and second team all-conference. Fryer has set a personal best mark in back-to-back events and trimmed nearly a full minute off her previous top mark. Her time in the 6k of 21:09.80 was good enough for 89^th overall in Missouri.
• As a sophomore in the 2025 New England Championships, Fryer clocked a 20:47.72 in the 5k. Emma Leary was the top finisher for the Vermont women at 19:11.72 and Hannah Shea is the top returner from the event. Now a sophomore, Shea crossed the line at 19:51.13 for the Catamounts.
