The last time it was this windy at an NCAA Regional, we were at Buffalo in 2011. That didn't work out so well for us. Today, at a windswept Franklin Park in Boston, we fared much better. Our men's team placed 16th -- a four-place and nearly 100-point improvement from 2014!. Our women's team placed 20th, a one-place improvement from last year. We overcame the unfortunate loss of our lead runner, Kristen Traub, in the final kilometer in the race. Kristen was pushed from behind on Bear Cage Hill, fell and ended up injuring her calf. She was in the top 40 in the race and moving up when she had to drop from the race. The rest of the ladies picked up -- that's what teams do! -- and we managed a solid finish. Results to follow ...
