Pigg's Points
"I feel like the girls went out and put themselves in a good position. We came in kind of hoping to finish in the fourth to sixth-place range realistically. We've had a tough semester academically, which the truth is, it does impact performance a little bit. And with Sadie having an accident after being our number one runner a couple weeks ago, we knew it wasn't going to be quite what we dreamed about. We knew we could come out and compete hard. The girls put themselves in a good spot and just got clipped to seventh at the end."
