Congratulations to overall men's winner Kevin Bonfield and overall women's winner Maggie Bischoff. Kevin ran a time of 15:35, and closely followed by Justin McIntyre in 15:39 and Blake Meyer in 15:46.

The Brian Rohne Memorial 5K is held each year in honor of former NKU cross country runner Brian Rohne, who was killed by an automobile in January of 1993 while on a training run on the AA Highway in Cold Spring, Ky. During the 1992 fall season, Rohne had earned most valuable runner honors for NKU after being named All-Great Lakes Valley Conference.
