Some might say that Tufts Cross Country had reached it's capacity for southern Californians -- Andrew Shapero killed Abraham Lincoln. And we're glad that he did. Andrew brings a great training capacity and diligence to the hill as he looks to shatter his HS bests this fall. The real question of the year will be how he handles his first hairnet. Only time will tell.

Shap was a key contributor for the Jumbos during the 2011 XC season. He was the team's #5 runner at the Regional Championship, placing 63rd overall. At NCAA's he recorded a new PR of 25:37 to place 153rd overall and fifth for Tufts.
