The event featured only Class 1a and 2a Programs. The Lady Eagles put 4 athletes on the Top 30 Podium all earning Top 15 Finishes in the field of the nearly 200 runners. Add in a solid 5th and 6th place runner in the Top 37 and the ladies earned a Runner Up finish behind a very strong Southwestern Hanover team to a score of 51-58.
