Good meet for the women and men. Holly Nuetzman, East Sac high school, paced the women’s squad as she ran a time of 22:02 for her first ever 5K. She finished in 33rd place out of 64 runners. Holly has the competitive edge to be a very good cross country athlete. Emily Erickson, Pine City high school, ran 40 seconds faster than a year ago on the same course. She ran 25:44 for 5K. Megan Long, Lyons Decatur high school, ran her first collegiate 5K in a time of 25:50. The women are improving each week and learning the importance of running mile after mile throughout the week. I am excited with the potential we have on the women’s squad.
The men improved greatly compared to last year’s results. One year ago the men had one runner finished under the 30 minute barrier and this year we had six runners break the 30 minute barrier. Last season our team average was 30:21 and this season the average was 29:05. Alex Lamp, Webster City high school, paced the men as he ran his first collegiate 8K in 27:26 to finish 15th overall. See the complete results below.
