HOPKINTON, N.H.- Two-time MAAC champion Hannah Snayd led Fairfield University Women's Cross Country on Friday morning at the NCAA Northeast Regional Championship which took place at New Hampshire's Hopkinton State Fairgrounds with a 13th place finish in the 251-runner competition. As a team, the Stags finished 28th out of 37 institutions.

Snayd earned All-Region laurels for her performance, covering the 6K course in a time of 20:19.8 -- less than four seconds outside the individual top-10 finish. Snayd improved her finish from last year's regional championship by a total of 33 spots and her finishing time by 40 seconds over 2024. Snayd is the first Stag in program history to merit NCAA All-Region honors, and her 13th place performance is the best ever by a Stag at the regional meet.

Boston College took the top spot in Friday's NCAA Women's Regional with 60 points followed by Providence with 71 points. With that finish, the Eagles and Friars earned automatic berths to the NCAA Division I Women's Cross Country National Championship Meet that will take place in Columbia, Missouri at the Gans Cross Country Course on November 22.
