Masai recorded the second-best 8K time in conference history and captured his second consecutive Colonial Athletic Association Cross Country Championship at the New Market Battlefield State Park course last Saturday. He posted a time of 23:54.5 to become just the sixth runner in CAA history to repeat as conference men's cross country champion in consecutive years. Masai's championship time was second only to Matt Lane's 23:46.01 from William and Mary at the 1999 championship in Wilmington, North Carolina. Masai was named the 2019 Most Outstanding Performer and also earned All-CAA honors for the second straight CAA Championship.

Masai also recorded his fourth meet title in as many outings this season and won his sixth cross country title in seven career meets.
