FROM HEAD COACH GRANT LOFDAHL
"These young men have been determined and resilient from day one, and they left it all out there on the course today. The end result came up just short of our goal, but the effort was strong."
"Glen (Davis) went out fast and mixed it up with some of the best runners in the country, and to finish where he did in his first GLIAC meet is outstanding. Sean (Pettis) and Jared (Platt) have worked so well together all year, and it's great to see them rewarded with all-conference finishes. Really an exceptional day for our top-3. Ethan (Pruzinsky) is starting to put the pieces together, and he took another step forward today. Our focus for Gabe (Trevino) has been smart race strategy, and he put together a good one.  Ishaan (Kundapur) and Ian competed hard in their first GLIAC meet, and their efforts were very good."
"This is still a very young team, with no seniors in the top-7 today, and the future is very bright. They've set their goals and did not quite meet them in terms of conference finish, but we have regionals in two weeks. These Warriors are going to be ready when we move up to 10,000 meters."
