On this edition of the MSUM Dragons Podcast, Assistant AD for Media and PR Nolan Schmidt sits down with distance man Jared Gregoire. The Buffalo, Minn., native turned in one of the greatest first-year campaigns in the history of the Northern Sun, winning conference Newcomer of the Year in indoor and outdoor track as well as cross country. Gregoire set numerous school records as a true freshman on the track and continued his upward pace as a sophomore.

The premier harrier would run into injury trouble late in his sophomore season that kept him out of action for the entirety of the 2024-25 athletic year. A mysterious injury could have kept Gregoire down, but he has since returned to action, looking sharp as the Dragons prepare for the NSIC Cross Country Championships. Gregoire discusses the important of patience throughout his journey back to running and why he is poised to pick up where he left off.
