LOUISVILLE, Ky. -- James Dueling and Alex Bush both set season PR's for the third week in a row as the cross country teams competed in the Louisville Classic on Saturday. 

Running in the men's 8k Blue Race, Dueling finished with an impressive time of 27:20 to place 25th.  Freshman Bush followed with a 28:34.

"Jimmy's training is going really well for him right now and it it showed out there today, " said Head Coach Sarah Thrall.  "The last time I saw him in the race today was at the 5k mark and he looked really strong.  I knew he was going to get a good time.  I couldn't be happier with the success Alex is having.  We've been training pretty hard these last couple of weeks, but he's doing really well.  A 28:34 for your third 8k, that's very good, " Thrall added.

On the women's side, the Cougars were again led by junior Tiffany Bremer as she finished the 5k course in a time of 21:41, almost a minute faster than she ran last year. Amy Roberts was the next USF runner to cross the line as she ran a 22:12.  Robyn Chapman and Molly Getts were the third and fourth runners as they finished with times of 22:35 and 23:49.  Lynn Altevogt was the fifth Cougar in at 24:03.

USF is back in action next Saturday as they travel down Route 24 to Huntington.
