Cougars Open At Taylor

Sat., Sep. 8, 2007

Upland, Ind. -- The University of Saint Francis Cross Country team opened their season at the Taylor Invite on Saturday. 

Leading the women was junior Tiffany Bremer with a time of  22:42.  She was followed by sophmore Robyn Chapman in 23:29.  On the men's side James Dueling raced for the Cougars for the first time in almost a year.  He finished the 8k in 29:34.  Running his first collegiate 8k was Alex Bush who had a strong outing as he finished with a time of 30:32.

"First races are always tough, " said head coach Sarah Thrall.  "Both Tiffany and Robyn ran about two minutes faster this year than they did last year so that was nice to see.  I was also really happy with Alex.  He was tough out there today and I know he'll improve a lot as the season goes on."

The Cougars only have five days until they run again at the National Catholic Cross Country Invitational at Notre Dame next Friday.
