"The race schedule got pushed back to attempt to deal with the heat," said Head Coach Brad Hagedorn. "However, the temperature was terrible. Thankfully, we still ran well. Coach Loch had the athletes acclimated well. Our men ran their first 8K of the season. For our freshmen, it was the first of their careers. They were all fabulous. Justin Horn showed his experience and led our team to an exceptional day."
