THOUGHTS FROM THE TOP
"Nick Morken has a very nice race leading the charge for our top three. He got out nicely and moved through the field. Noah Perkins also looked very strong and put in a top notch race. Freshman Nathan Jubran broke the 25:00 barrier for the 8k in his debut at the distance. Nathan worked well with Noah and Nick and those three really raced well. Christian Conder had a nice 8k personal best as the team's number four finisher. His racing is catching up with his training. Leo Queyrou finished in our top five had a nice 8k as well. He is becoming familiar with the distance and raced well." – Head coach Jeff Pigg
