COACH'S QUOTE
"We accomplished quite a bit today, and also illuminated a few things that we need to improve. Hope and Izzy earned spots for next week's race at Indiana State, joining the nine women who we rested today," said head coach Matt Belfield. "The depth on our team is better than ever and we simply need the whole pack to keep moving up. I'm very impressed with how well we are supporting each other through the early part of the season while picking up those who are a little behind their development right now. We're going to get better for sure."
