October 4, 2008

Greyhound MEN finish third; WOMEN finish fifth at Keene State Invitational

KEENE, NH --- Keene State College, as expected, dominated both sides of the Keene State College Invitational Cross Country championship here Saturday.

The Assumption College men's team paced by freshman PATRICK ERBAN (Attleboro, MA/Bishop Feehan) finished third, while women's team led by senior captain HEATHER GOSTYLA (Bloomfield, CT/NW Catholic) was fifth.

Erban, the Greyhounds most consistent performer this year has either been first or second for his team in the team's four events. He ran the 8k hilly course in 27:41 to finish 1:22 behind the individual winner, unattached Jason Ayr, in 10th place.

On the women's side Gostyla has been her team's pacesetter in all four meets to date and ran a 20:32 to finish 1:21 behind the individual pacesetter, Lauren Reddy of Wheaton in 19th place. Her time was her second-best this season --- only the 19:47 she ran at UMass Dartmouth was better however the difference in courses has to be factored. UMass Dartmouth is primarily a flat course, while the Keene course is hilly and rugged.

The Greyhounds are next in action at the New England Invitational to be held at Franklin Park in Boston Saturday (October 11, 2008). The men's race starts at 10 a.m., the women's at 11 a.m.
