ROCKLIN, Calif. – Kira Morrow finished third overall to lead the Oregon Tech women's cross country team at the William Jessup Invitational.
COMPLETE RESULTS
Competing on a 6,000-meter course, Morrow clocked a time of 25:30.70 on the extremely warm morning, finishing behind only Elizette Ysais of UC Merced and Abby Binder of UC Davis.
UC Merced won the team title with 33 points, just ahead of host William Jessup (57). As a team, the Lady Owls did not record a team score – as four runners competed on the day.
"Kira was really good," said OIT head coach
Mike Anderson. "She ran fantastic, especially in the second half of the race, moving up from tenth-place at the midway point."
Hannah Mason placed 13th overall (27:04.70) for the Lady Owls, with McKenzie Morgan in 22nd (28:26.00) and Mackenzie Peterson in 23rd (28:53.60).
Tech returns to the trails next Saturday in Salem at the Charles Bowles Invitational.
