Beavers Cap Competition at Ash Creek Invite
September 10, 2021 | Women's Cross Country
MONMOUTH, Ore. – Redshirt sophomore Lexy Hayes and redshirt freshman Isabella Ayala represented the Oregon State University women's cross country team at the Ash Creek Invite, hosted by Western Oregon in Monmouth, Ore. on Friday.
"It was really a solid run for Lexy and Isabella. It's not an easy course, it's got thick, rutted grass, so the course runs slow, but I was pleased with their results," said head coach Louie Quintana, "It was definitely Lexy's best cross country race ever, which is encouraging. Isabella is coming off of a summer injury, so it was great just to have her lining up. She's so competitive. Competing unattached, Emma and Grace were awesome. I saw really poised and mature racing from them. I'm happy for them all."
Competing for the Beavers, Hayes stopped the clock at 14:42.9 for a 4K personal best, placing ninth overall. Ayala clocked a 4K personal best of 15:19.8 to finish 21st.
Competing unattached, senior Emma McCurry took sixth with a time of 14:40.2 and freshman Grace Rubio finished tenth with a time of 14:43.2.
Up Next
The Beavers will be back in action on Sept. 23 at the Dellinger Invite, hosted by Oregon in Springfield, Ore. as well as on Sept. 24 at the Mike Johnson Classic, hosted by Western Oregon in Monmouth, Ore.
