COACH'S QUOTE
"Very challenging 6k today, but I thought many of our women raced strong," head coach Matt Belfield said. "We got a win over Maine, so some success there. Fitness and mental toughness are what we're building, and I saw progress in our concentration and execution for sure. Looking forward to a good two-week training period before Coast-to-Coast. I'm confident we'll get better as a team every time we get out there."
