POST RACE COMMENTS:
"Missing out on fourth by one point stings, but we really fought for each point, and closed up 12-15 points in the last mile. I was proud of that effort. Kinsey's first team all conference performance was the culmination of a great career full of hard work and consistency. That was hard earned both on the day and also on her career. 
We had a lot of first year conference runners who handled the moment well and excited for all of them on what's ahead!" - Head Coach Pete Cushman
