COACH ANDY YOUNG QUOTES
• "It was a solid meet for us today. We ran a controlled effort for some of our top runners so they could be well-rested for PSACs."
• "We set a lot of personal bests today. We were trying to figure out our top 12 runners for PSACs, and now we have a good idea of who we're going with."

NOTES
• Last season Lebanon Valley College hosted the Dutchmen Invitational and Millersville finished fifth out of 14 teams.

UP NEXT
