FROM HEAD COACH GRANT LOFDAHL
"Our women were very impressive today in the season opener. Hillsdale has a solid program that we have a lot of respect for, and to earn a big win over them on their very challenging course was nice."

"Taylor (Hopkins) did an awesome job of leading our pack, and Ava (Peters) showed that she's going to be force at the collegiate level. Emilee (Rudlaff), Aubrey (Migoski), and Robin (Bresolin) worked together and gave us a really solid 23-second spread between our top five runners. If we can keep that kind of pack mentality going, we're in for a successful season."

UP NEXT
WSU will host the Warrior Challenge on Friday, Sept. 12 at 5 p.m. at Willow Metropark.
