San Diego State’s women’s cross country team is more motivated than ever after placing third at the Anteater Invitational at UC Irvine on Wednesday.
The Scarlet and Black competed with teams such as Cal Baptist and Long Beach State. Junior Jessica Kain placed sixth overall with senior teammate Emily Burd (Sr) placing 11th.
Because of the pandemic, this was the first time many of SDSU’s runners have competed in a real race. Kain says she was ready to get back to racing.
“I am so excited to race again,” Kain said. ”It’s been a while.”
Coach Robert Lusitana says his athletes competed well on Wednesday.
