Head coach Jon Cutright noted that the team showed improvement at LHU and gained experience that will help them as they move forward in their season. 

"The front and back group ran really well," Cutright said. "Some of the best improvements came from the back group. It was the first time running 6K for some of the freshman. They'll get better from having run that." 

The team will compete next on Oct. 10 at Slippery Rock University.
