Brennan won the individual title at the 2025 Empire 8 Women’s Cross Country Championship at St. John Fisher on Saturday, finishing 21 seconds ahead of the field over the 6,000-meter course in a time of 22:22.7. Brennan, who was third at the 2024 E8 Championships and sixth at the 2024 NCAA Niagara Region Championships, used a tremendous late brush to rally from third at the 4,000-meter mark to roll to the win. It is Brennan’s fourth E8 weekly honor of 2025.
