The Elizabethtown College men's and women's cross country teams were the new kids on the block last year after officially joining the Landmark Conference. It didn't take long to make their presence felt as both teams went on to win Landmark Conference titles. For the women, it was their eighth consecutive league crown, tying the men's team (1999-2006) for the longest such streak. The men and women were both voted as the preseason favorites to repeat as champions.
