ALAMOSA - The week long early signing period was a success for the Adams State University cross country and track & field program. The Grizzlies signed a strong group of three to its 2018-19 women's cross country recruiting class. Director of Cross Country and Track & Field Damon Martin, and Recruiting Coordinator David Granato announced the newcomers earlier this week.
 
"We are really excited about this class of young ladies," said Martin. "They are a very accomplished group, and throughout the recruiting process we felt like they meshed well with our current athletes. These three young ladies are going to add a lot to our current group, and help Adams State in our continued pursuit of excellence.
 
Martin also had this to say, "Our recruiting coordinator, David Granato, should also be commended for his efforts in putting this class together. His hard work and dedication has been a tremendous boost to the program."
