HEAD COACH TED BULLING'S COMMENTS

• "Gabby Thomas and McKenna Marsh both ran very well and led the women. Marsh had a lifetime best time and Thomas ran strong after missing the last meet."
• "With our #1 runner Norbert Weijenberg out with an injury, Grant Reid and Colby Karr both ran lifetime best times to lead the men."
• "With 30+ teams in both races, the fields were huge. 364 finished the women's race and 424 men finished."

UP NEXT
