Coach Green on the performance: "With the conditions being not great, I decided to sit out most of our top 7 to help prepare them for the all-important meet next week at the Great Lakes Invite challenge, which will have 15 of the top 30 teams in the NAIA. Luke, Jack [Kelly] and Ben were the only ones in that group
who competed. We did not run our top guys who are just coming back from injury to give them
another week of training."

The men will be back next Saturday to compete in the Great Lakes Challenge hosted by Aquinas
College at Riverside park, home of this year's WHAC conference meet.
