Meet Scoring
Only the first seven runners on an institution's team may be used in determining scoring places… (sixth and seventh team finishers displace, but do not score). A score shall be established by totaling the final scoring place finish of an institution's first five runners to finish the race. The team scoring the lowest number of points wins. If two or more competitors are judged as having tied for a place, points for the places involved shall be divided equally between these competitors. Ties in team scoring shall be broken by comparing in order the place finish of each of the five winning scoring members of the tied teams. The team with the majority of winning comparisons shall be awarded the higher place.
 
Series
WOMEN: Saturday's race will be the 38th Army-Navy Star Meet between the two rivals. Navy has won nine of the last 12 matchups dating back to 2011 with two losses by a slim one-point margin, 27-28 and the third, by two points, 27-29 in 2020. All-time, the Mids lead the series 23-14.

Head coach Kim Lewnes will be leading the Mids for fifth time in this rivalry. Last year's victory was the second Star win for Lewnes (2021, '22).
 
MEN: Saturday will mark the 86th Star Meet in the history of the Army-Navy men's cross country rivalry. After a dominant stretch from 2009 through 2016 that saw the Mids win seven of eight meets, the Black Knights closed the gap in the all-time series with back-to-back wins in 2017 and 2018. Navy got back to its winning ways in October of 2019 to captured the 50th victory in the series. The Mids have won four consecutive races in the series. All-time Navy leads 53-31-1.
 
Last year, led by top two finishes by Garrison Clark ('23) and Brett Brady ('23), Navy notched a 22-35 win over Army in the annual Star Meet at the USNA Cross Country Course. Clark claimed individual medalist honors in the 4.9-mile race, while Brady crossed the finish line in second in America's Meet.
 
This is the sixth Army-Navy meet that Aaron Lanzel will be participating in as a head coach (4-1 record); as a student-athlete from 1999-02, Lanzel went 4-0 in Star Meets.
