KASHON HARRISON DECIDES ON COLORADO

The top boys cross country runner in New Mexico is heading north to continue his career.  On Monday, Kashon Harrison signed a National Letter of Intent to run for Colorado University.  The Kirtland Central senior is a two-time state champion in cross country and was also named the Gatorade New Mexico Cross Country Runner of the Year in back-to-back seasons.  Harrison won the Foot Locker West Regional championships for a second straight year, then earned All-American status by finishing 11th at the FLCCC. He also took fifth at the Nike Cross Nationals Southwest Regional championships.

Harrison chose Colorado over Oregon, Oklahoma, Northern Arizona and Syracuse.
