CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. – Competing in his first race since the NCAA Cross Country Championships in March, Illinois State senior distance runner Kevin Koski made his outdoor season debut by running one of the top 10,000-meter run times in school history on Friday night at the Virginia Challenge at Lannigan Field.
Koski, who ran a 10-second personal-best time of 29:47.38 in the 10K, placed 13th overall in the race to move into the ISU top-10 for the first time in the event. His time is the ninth-fastest in school history and leads the Missouri Valley Conference by over 30 seconds.

Koski and the rest of the Illinois State track & field squad will return to action at the Drake Relays (April 22-24) and at Louisville's Lenny Lyles-Clark Wood Invitational (April 23-24) next weekend.
