Emily Gordon finished closely behind in 88th place with a time of 22:49.53. Taylor Hopkins was next for Wayne State, placing 92nd with a time of 22:50.26.

In addition to the main event, five Wayne State athletes participated in a six-kilometer open race.

Head Coach Grant Lofdahl commented on the team's performance: "The ladies did a good job of bouncing back from a tough race last week. We still aren't quite where we want to be, but this race was a step in the right direction for sure. Reagan Justice went out and battled some of the best runners in country, and her seventh-place finish was tremendous."
The Wayne State women's cross country team is set to compete again on Friday, October 18 at the SVSU Red October Meet.
