NORTH DARTMOUTH, Mass. – The UMass Lowell women's cross country team recorded some stellar performances on Saturday afternoon at the UMass Dartmouth Invitational.
"It was a good day overall," said Head Coach Gary Gardner. "It was a good first race for the majority of the team and I thought we ran a really solid opener, especially since we were missing a few key pieces. It appears we are in a good spot as a team."
In the women's gold 6k, junior Georgia Brooks (Groton, Mass.) led the squad with a 12th-place performance out of 241 runners and a 21:57.45 mark, just before freshman Rosie Bradley (Harvard, Mass.) claimed 13th with a time of 21:59.32. Next was graduate student Kylie Marion (Baldwinville, Mass.) in 17th place, finishing with a personal-best time of 22:09.91, just before sophomore Anna Fondakowski came in with a 22:11.72 mark for 19th place.
Freshman Paige McInerney represented the River Hawks with a 37th-place finish, earning a time of 22:39.06, while junior Lauren Long (Lunenburg, Mass.) claimed 44th with a time of 22:45.42. Junior Selena Wood (Abington, Mass.) (69th, 23:20.13), junior Salma Boukhtam (Quincy, Mass.) (83rd, 23:37.42) and graduate student Raihana Yameogo (Dillsburg, Pa.) (111th, 24:36.08) also competed for the River Hawks.
In the navy 6k race, sophomore Addyson Hunt (Wilmington, Mass.) excelled and led the way for the team, finishing second in a race of 180 finishers with a personal-best time of 23:05.07. senior Lena Takahashi (Holden, Mass.) and freshman Lilah Hall (Durham, Maine) were next, claiming 20th and 25th place, respectively, as Takahashi finished in 24:16.94 and Hall in 24:27.69. Rounding out the River Hawks were junior Brianna Phelan (Billerica, Mass.) and sophomore Grace Brackett (Wakefield, Mass.), finishing in 41st and 51st place, respectively. Phelan finished with a time of 24:56.10, while Brackett earned a 25:09.44 mark.Â
