Pac-12 Championships recap: We certainly didn't finish as we would have liked (9th place) despite some health issues among our top runners. However, the middle of our line up (two freshmen and a sophomore) continue to develop as a group. Six teams in our league are currently ranked among the national top 30 with two more receiving votes. The 2013 league champion finished just in front of us in 8th place this year. We undoubtedly run in the toughest xc league in America...and we love it! Our gals see it as a platform to improve and be the best they can be. What more can you ask for as a coach?!?!
Regional Preview: This Friday afternoon in Albuquerque, NM we race at the NCAA Regional Championships. If we can put it all together we believe we have a chance to earn an at-large berth to the NCAA meet. It will require our absolute best effort of the year as the field is very deep from 3-10. If we are unable to qualify as a team we also have two individuals who will be looking to secure individual qualifying spots (top four individual on a non qualifying team). Fifth year senior, Rebekah Winterton (trying to make it to the NC meet in consecutive seasons) and true freshman Sarah Feeny will look to run among the leaders and earn their way to Terre Haute, IN.
