Freshman Hunter Ogle had the best gain, posting a 19:18. That was over a minute faster than his personal best. Other runners posting their PRs were Seth Lilla, Ben Henderson, and Lucy Wundrow. The Orioles rested three runners with minor injuries to prepare for the upcoming Cloverbelt Conference Championship at Meadowview Golf Course in Owen this coming Saturday, Oct. 18.”
