Reno, NV—The UC Riverside Women's Cross Country Team got its 2012 season underway Friday afternoon finishing the two-mile Nevada Chase Race in second place out of three teams at San Rafael Park. UCR totaled 39 points--just one point behind the winner, Nevada--while UCLA placed third with 50 points.
"It was a good start," Head Coach Irv Ray stated. "We're happy with the progress in our training, and looking forward to the rest of the season."
Damajeria DuBose led the Highlanders with a third place finish out of 27 individuals with a time of 12:06. She was followed closely by Jzsanette Lindstrom and Alisha Brown who placed sixth and seventh respectively with 12:21 times.
Katy Daly came in 10th in 12:25 with Raquel Hefflin, Brianna Simmons and Jaasmin Pina finishing 13th, 14th and 15th. Maryann Holliday, Brittany Fellows, and Elizabeth Guzman concluded the race in 21st, 25th and 27th.
The chase race format is a handicap style race with the lowest ranked athletes starting first followed by groups of higher ranked athletes at regular intervals.
Athletes started in groups based on the position on their team. The seventh, eighth and lower ranked athletes on a team started when the gun fired. Thirty seconds later the fifth and sixth runners from each team started, and thirty seconds later the third and fourth runners from each team started. Finally, another thirty seconds later, the first and second runners from each team started.
The Highlanders return to Riverside to host their annual Invitational on Saturday, September 15 at the UCR Ag/Ops Course. The women's 6000m race gets underway at 7:30 am PT with the women's 5000m collegiate open slated for 8:45 am.
