Course Side with Head Coach Matt Esche:
"A solid day by Rebecca, Sarah and Emily. They showed poise and maturity in a race of this stature," head coach Matt Esche said. "As a whole though, we were not as aggressive as we were at Memphis which caused us to leave a good chunk of points on the table. With a young squad, things like this can happen but I truly believe we will learn from it and be better next at Louisville."

UP Next:
UAB will travel to Louisville, Ky. to race in the Greater Louisville Classic set for Saturday, Sept. 30.
