Hall of Fame
Dirk Hollar was a member of the Men's Cross-Country for four years. During his exceptional career on the team, he ran in the NAIA National Championship Meet every year he competed for the Bears – becoming the first runner at the university to manage that feat.
He held the highest individual finish at Nationals for the first 10 years of the program, before Hall of Famer Keegan Rathkamp finished 10th in 2008. In Hollar's first season with the Bears, he made American Mideast (AME) All-Conference honors, being named to the Honorable Mention Team after recording six top-10 finishes.
One of those recorded finishes was with a time of 26:21, which at the time was the fastest-ever recorded by a freshman. In his senior season, he was named to Second-Team AME honors, where he had five top-10 finishes.
