Coach Holland's comments: "We ran a few of our top runners at UIW last night, so this gave the whole team a chance to get a race in early right here in Seguin. The temperatures were a little hot and humid at 8:30 a.m., but that didn't stop both teams from racing well. Southwestern ran great, and we were right in the thick of it. I know we have work to do to be ready as we move forward, but getting a little taste of competition definitely helped spark a fire! We are looking forward to our upcoming races! It was also so great to host here in Seguin so that we could get the TLU supporters out! Even Talulah the Bulldog was in attendance! The Splash Pad at Park West was a fun activity to do after the race as well. It was a great morning!"
