Beavers Cap Competition at Nuttycombe Invitational
October 15, 2021 | Women's Cross Country
MADISON, Wis. – The Oregon State women's cross country team competed at the Nuttycombe Invitational, hosted by Wisconsin at the Thomas Zimmer Championship Cross Country Course on Friday. The No. 30 Beavers finished 27th in the team standings with 690 points. Out of the 36 teams competing, the Nuttycombe Invitational featured a total of 19 ranked teams out of the USTFCCCA National Coaches' Poll.
Redshirt sophomores Kaylee Mitchell and Grace Fetherstonhaugh led the Beavers, clocking times of 20:48.9 to place 42nd and 21:09.5 to place 76th, respectively. Senior Audrey Lookner stopped the clock at 21:49.9 to finish 174th. Next to cross the line was junior Mari Friedman, who posted a time of 21:57.2, finishing 188th.
"We had a rough day," said head coach Louie Quintana, "I'm not entirely sure where things went wrong for us, but I really have a lot of faith in this group and know that we will bounce back. We have high expectations and sometimes the weight of that can get the better of them. We just need to trust it and get back to work next week."
Redshirt freshman Zoe Simmons and sophomore Liv Downing competed in the B race, posting times of 23:10.7 and 23:30.5, to place 71st and 79th, respectively.
