Assistant Coach Lindsay Crevoiserat
On the team's performance: "It was ok, we just didn't get out hard enough and we got stuck in the back and they moved up as well as we could have. We were hoping for a little better, but I think we just kind of ran out of juice. I just think we didn't get out fast and hard enough. We were in the back and then moved up to 22nd, but it just wasn't enough."

On Lindsay Cunningham leading the Badgers: "Honestly, it was amazing. She's been dealing with PT and school, she's been trying to train and race.I feel like her run today was for the team and not for herself. I'm really excited for her and was really glad she was able to do that and help the team, even though she wasn't 100%."
