Georgetown Men's Results (2nd of 7, 91 points)
COACH BONSEY ON THE MEN'S RACE
"I think this was a nice opener for the men. The goal was to run together as a group and they did a great job of that. We had six guys finish all together. Today was more about going through the process of mentally preparing for a competition as opposed to racing hard. We will run a bigger group and run more aggressive two weeks from now at Penn State."
Georgetown Women's Results (2nd of 8, 39 points)
COACH CULLEY ON THE WOMEN'S RACE
"We had a great outing today accomplishing all the goals we set out for in this early season opener. We had a number of men and women with different race tasks and we executed them all very well as a group. We look forward to lining up as a more complete squad in a few weeks at Penn State."
UP NEXT
The Hoyas will travel to State College, PA on September 13 to compete in the Penn State Spiked Shoe Invitational.
