Syracuse swept both ACC Performer of the Week honors for the final regular season meet of the season.
Gabriel Planty claimed the men's honors, and Caroline Kirby earned the award for the women. Both were the Orange's top finisher at the John Reif Memorial last week.
Planty took fourth overall, which was the top performance by any runner competing attached for their respective school at the meet, traversing the 5k course in 14:50.4.
Kirby was second overall, again the top performance by any runner competing for their school, in a time of 17:58.9. She was nine-seconds ahead of teammate Bethany Steiner, as 'Cuse affiliated runners took the top-six spots, including those competing unattached.
Next, the Orange will compete at the ACC Championships on Friday in Tallahassee.
