Kirsten Johnston improved her place in the standings throughout the race and finished 38th with a season-best 21:39.1, less than one second off of her personal-best time.

Β
MEN'S HIGHLIGHTS
The men's side was led by freshmen Sean Byrne (25.35.8) and Lakelin Conrad (25:38.4), who finished in 38th and 41st respectively. Patrick LaCour and Henry Butz were the next Horned Frogs to cross the finish line, both of which finished with season-best times of 26:49.1 and 26:52.4 respectively.
Β
COACH'S THOUGHTS
"I thought the women ran well," cross country coach Jennifer Fazioli said. "Certainly we were looking for the 6-7th place range, even without Mariah, and to be 6 points out of 7th and 10 out of 6th is both encouraging and frustrating at the same time. But almost all of them raced exactly as I asked them to and I am proud of them. KJ and Lindsay especially raced very strong today. All steps in the right direction."
Β
UP NEXT
The Horned Frogs will head back to College Station for the NCAA South Central Region meet, scheduled for Friday, November 9.
