The best duo would be Sami Corman and Maggie Donahue. Offseason indicates the three transfers, including leading 800m Katy-Ann McDonald from LSU.

A great start for both teams, especially with top runners absent.

Complete Stride Report on the women:
Alright, let's wrap this up with one more BIG East team: the Georgetown Hoyas.
This is a VERY interesting team.
The Hoyas were a solid team in 2021, winning the BIG East title and earning a top-20 finish at the NCAA XC Championships with an 18th place spot finish. This team now returns everyone except for Kiera Bothwell, someone who was more of a backend scorer for the Hoyas throughout last fall.
That fact alone would make Georgetown a scary-good team if the conversation ended there. Maggie Donahue and Sami Corman are two of the most underrated low-sticks in the NCAA and the rest of this team has shown tons of promise.
What's not to like?
But what's even more exciting is that Georgetown has also added Grace Jensen, Katy-Ann McDonald and Andrea Claeson from the transfer portal this year. That is a TON of cross country scoring firepower that is suddenly injected into a program that really wasn't losing a whole lot of scoring to begin with.
Some people may view that transfer trio as track specialists, but each of these women have also thrived on the grass. Jensen is a three-time top-20 finisher at the SEC XC Championships while both McDonald and Claeson were each individual cross country national qualifiers (in different seasons).
On paper, Georgetown may have the most complete cross country lineup in the NCAA, or least the most complete lineup amongst the non-podium contending teams.
But just because they aren't in that conversation right now doesn't mean that they can't get there. In theory, there shouldn't be a ton of flaws or weak points within the Hoyas' lineup this year. That's how impactful their incoming transfers are.
However, the success of this group will ultimately come down to how much better everyone else becomes.
No, I'm not just talking about the incoming transfers, I'm talking about Maggie Donahue, Sami Corman and the rest of the supporting cast within this top-seven. Because frankly, we don't really have a good idea of how much better the individuals within roster will actually become.
And that's what makes Georgetown such as fascinating team to monitor come October and November.
