ESTACADA, Ore. – Quality races from the three Oregon Tech finishers highlighted the final regular-season race for the Lady Owls cross country squad, competing in the Lewis & Clark Invitational at McIver Park.
Competing in a field of 31 teams and nearly 300 runners, the OIT runners each recorded quality times over the 6,000-meter distance.
"Our ladies ran well, we got out aggressively and held on for another good day," said OIT head coach
Mike Anderson. "Individually, we got big progress today from Kira Morrow."
For the fourth-straight race, Morrow was the Owls top finisher, placing 57th overall in a time of 23:17 – nearly two minutes faster than her top 6-kilometer time of the season.
Hannah Mason placed 84th (23:56) – nearly three and a half minutes faster than her time at the Jessup Invitational, with McKenzie Morgan in 107th (24:46) – four minutes faster than her previous best.
The Lady Owls will have three weeks to prepare for the Cascade Conference Championships, set for Nov. 4, in Talent, Ore.
