Embry-Riddle Cross-Country Classic
For the 2nd time this season freshman Brennan Popik took over the #1 stop and lead Adrian Figueroa, John Bear, Drew Stone and Lucas VanGinkel to an 8th place finish on the hot and hilly xc course at Embry Riddle University. Brennan and Adrian moved to 5th and 7th on the BlueWave All-Time Top 10 list with Saturday's performance.
Women's team Captain Hannah Ziegler led the women with a PR performance and an 8th place finish on the course famous for being the most challenging in the state. Hannah was followed closely by Hailey Smith, who also turned in a PR performance. For the 2nd week in a row freshman Meghan Bonser lit the fuse on the best kick of the meet and XC rookie Faith Harrold also ran a PR. "No one runs a PR on this course, it's too hard. We had 3 women PR on this course today…absolutely awesome!" commented Head Coach Jody Hale.
Next week the BlueWave travels to University of Central Florida to compete in the UCF Knight's Cross-Country Invitational.
