Magnus Sheffield ‘20 is the Men’s 15-16 cyclocross national champion. He finished the race 27 seconds ahead of the field, giving him a gold medal and the title of National Champion at the race in Reno, Nevada on January 13. This accomplishment equals the same gold medal he had won two seasons before, but was unable to match last season because of what he described as “a devastating race for me.” Last year’s loss gave him drive to get out in front early in this year’s race and hold the lead all the way to the end.
