BIRMINGHAM, Ala. - After his first event as a Rebel, Ole Miss freshman Mark Robertson was named Southeastern Conference Cross Country Men's Freshman Runner of the Week by the league office on Tuesday.

Robertson's second-place time of 20.07.74 in the four-mile event led Ole Miss to a first-place finish at the Brooks Memphis Twilight Classic.

The Pensacola, Florida, native beat out 127 other runners in the season opener. The first-place team finish was against a field consisting of four other regionally ranked teams.

The Rebel cross country teams return to action Sept. 13 in Nashville, Tennessee, at the Commodore Classic.
