Verrett, a first-year from Cockeysville, Md., made the most of his first collegiate competition with a top-three finish in the multi-divisional Galen Piper Challenge hosted by Shippensburg University (Pa.). Verrett finished the six-kilometer course third overall out of 77 competitors and second amongst non-Division I runners with a time of 19:29.80 and a 6:13.7 per-mile clip. He was just 0.03 seconds short of the University of Pittsburgh's Nick Cardamone for second overall. Verrett's efforts helped Washington and Lee claim the team victory with 42 points, topping host Shippensburg by 20 markers.
