Star NC State freshmen Katelyn Tuohy and Marlee Starliper will not race at Friday's ACC Cross Country Championships, Wolfpack coach Laurie Henes confirmed to LetsRun.com on Tuesday.

"I am hopeful and I believe that both of them will be ready whenever there is an actual NCAA championship, and that's our goal, the long-term," Henes said.

The NCAA championships are scheduled for March 15, in Stillwater, Okla.

But Henes said that neither athlete was 100% healthy when they arrived on campus she declined to go into specifics and said it didn't make sense to rush them back to racing in a fall season devoid of an NCAA championship.

We're going to be very conservative and patient and take a long-term approach to it, because I think that for both of them, they're at a super high talent level and their goals are very high," Henes said. "We just didn't see a benefit to rushing back to racing at this point."

Starliper told Milesplit in May that she had taken a month off of training in the spring after tweaking her leg on a trail run. Tuohy told LoHud.com in July that she was forced to take some time off this summer due to injury.

"I've been dealing with knee pain for the last two years, so I've kind of just shut it down," Tuohy said.

Henes said that both athletes have resumed training though not at full volume and has liked what she has seen from an attitude perspective.

The women's team will be looking for its fifth ACC title in a row, having won every year since 2016. The women are also currently ranked No. 4 in the nation and No. 1 in the ACC by the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association.

The men's team will go into the ACC Championships as the fourth highest-ranked ACC team, only behind Notre Dame, Virginia and Syracuse. The men currently sit at 21st in the national poll.

The men's 8k will race first at 10 a.m., followed by the women's 6k at 11 a.m. Due to COVID-19, no spectators will be allowed to attend this year.

Flashresults.com picked a hell of a day to crash...

Looks like the men took 2nd
Women took 1st (5 ACC team titles in a row). Dominique Clairmonte won the individual title. Women swept the 1st 2nd and 3rd place finishes (i think) [edit - incorrect]

NC State track and field started its season on the road in the Gamecock Opener hosted by the South Carolina Gamecocks on Saturday, Jan 16. The historic meet featuring 10 schools saw 16 top-5 finishes from the Wolfpack.

In the sprints, senior Von Douglas posted a personal best in the men's 60-meter dash final, finishing eighth with a time of 6.94. Freshman Mia D'Ambrosio's college debut went well, finishing in third in the women's 60-meter dash with a time of 7.70.

In the hurdles, sophomore Ally Henson, redshirt junior Mikieja Covington and senior Alexis Postell finished third, fourth and fifth, respectively.

The jumpers earned some podium spots as well. Douglas, junior Jamar Davis and sophomore Chris Alexander finished fourth, fifth and sixth, respectively, in the men's high jump. These marks all broke the previous facility record, which now belongs to Florida State's Isaac Grimes for his 8.00-meter finish.

On the women's side of that event, senior Michelle Cobb and sophomore Jirah Sidberry finished third with a distance of 5.57 meters and fourth with a distance of 5.54 meters, respectively. Both Cobb and Sidberry also broke the previously standing facility record, which is now owned by Florida State's Alonie Sutton at 5.98 meters.

In the men's triple jump, Alexander and Davis finished third with a distance of 15.37 meters and fourth with a distance of 14.93 meters, respectively. In what became a trend for the event, both marks broke the previous site record but were outperformed by a Florida State Seminole, this time Isaac Grimes at 15.65 meters.

Although no NC State athletes competed in either event, two other noteworthy performances were made. South Carolina's Jackson Marseille eked out a new NCAA record in the men's high jump at 2.14 meters, which previously stood at 2.08 meters. UNC-Charlotte teammates Jacob Davis and Chandler Ward also tied the NCAA record for the men's pole vault, posting a height of 4.70 meters and J4.70 meters, respectively.

In the throwing department, junior Kayla Beasley finished third in the women's weight throw with a personal-best 16.94 meters. Redshirt senior Tyson Fortenberry also recorded a third-place finish on the men's side with a distance of 17.14 meters.

To round out the meet, the women's 4x400 relay team finished third with a time of 4:09.64, notching the Pack's seventh third-place finish of the weekend.

The Pack will continue its season as it travels to Virginia Tech for the Hokie Invitational on Jan. 22-23.
