CAMBRIDGE, Mass. - Adding to their impressive finishes at last weekend's Ivy League Heptagonal Championships, the men's and women's cross country teams have since racked up a plethora of individual awards.
 
Thanks to his role in not only strengthening the program, but also in leading the teams to victory this past Saturday, associate head coach Alex Gibby has been named 2021 Ivy League Coach of the Year. As laid out in the official Ivy League release, "[Gibby's] ??Crimson were crowned the women's champions for the first time since 2016, recording a runaway 37 points, 31 points ahead of second-place Princeton. It is Harvard's eighth Ivy League title overall…Under Gibby's guidance in 2019, both the women's and men's cross country programs qualified for the NCAA Championships for the first time in program history." This is Gibby's first such award in his five years as a member of the Crimson.
 
Adding to Harvard's accolades, ten Crimson runners have been named to either the First Team All-Ivy, the Second Team All-Ivy, or the Academic All-Ivy Team. The First and Second All-Ivy teams are determined by individual results at the Ivy League Heptagonal Championships, while the Academic All-Ivy team is evaluated based on both individual athletic performance and academic achievement.
