Head Coach Josh Jones added about Grabow's race, "Becky had a good time for her 5K. Next time she runs the 5K, Becky will definitely run a faster time because she will pace herself better."

Head coach Josh Jones said of the day, "The ladies ran great today, Mia had a great 800m and most likely would have won her heat but was tripped up with 300m left." He added, "Lindsay ran her first steeple chase and finished in seventh place. Overall it was a very good mid-season meet and now we start to get those times down. I couldn't be happier with the team."
