"I'm really proud of how our women competed today. They showed great composure and toughness throughout the race and earned a third-place team finish in a very competitive conference," head coach Camryn Snapp said. "Elizabeth ran a smart race to secure her spot at nationals, and the rest of the group worked well together to close out an impressive season. We were missing two key ladies due to injury, and with them in the lineup, I believe our results could have been even stronger. Still, this team has stepped up and continued to grow and raise the standard for our program."
