"Between Anna and Jenna racing for the win and the team scores being so close, today was an exciting race. I thought we executed the race plan well and 1-4 ran great but we had some issues in the heat that kept our number five runner from being where she can be. Beating Louisville and EKU was important but I'm not satisfied with 5th place."
"Individually, Anna and Jenna continue to impress me. They're racing at a much higher level than last year and it's great to watch them work together."
• Xavier returns to action at both the Louisville Classic and the Paul Short Run on Saturday, Sept. 29.
