Running in just their second collegiate 6K, Katie Ranck (23:01.69), Isabel Clayton (25:23.82) and Melanie Tribick (26:46.56) all improved on their times from the FSU Open back on Sept. 17. Ansley Fullen ran her first collegiate 6K and recorded a time of 26:33.40.

Quotables from coach Kelly Carter
"This meet gave our freshmen some great experience going up against the best athletes in the South Region. They competed hard, and we had a few PRs, so getting this experience will pay dividends for us. I'm excited about the future with our distance program."
