KINGS PARK, NY – The College of Staten Island men's and women's cross country teams will conclude their 2026 regular-season schedule Saturday morning at the SJLI Invitational in Kings Park, NY. The meet serves as a makeup for the Golden Eagle Invitational, which was canceled due to inclement weather on September 26.

Women's 5K Records Reset:

Adriana Roa continues to put together a stellar sophomore season for the Dolphins, now holding the top five 5K times in CSI women's cross country history. At the Highlander Invitational, the Dolphins competed against several Division I programs, including Army and the University at Albany. Roa finished 16th out of 181 runners with a time of 18:37.58, setting a new program record and surpassing her previous mark, which she established at last year's Highlander Invitational. For her performance, Roa also earned an East Coast Conference (ECC) honorable mention for the week of October 13.
