Taybri Irving was our top finisher, placing 13th overall, 3rd against fellow MIAC competitors and shaving off another 5 seconds off her lifetime best from just two weeks ago. I am very happy with our progress this season as we head into the Championship portion of the year. We are looking to better our performance at the MIAC Championships in two weeks!"
