“We had great individual efforts from our runners tonight as the kids wanted our seniors to have their final home meet a huge success,” Notre Dame coach Chris Wise said. “Winning three of the four races was better than I expected. Piper, Maura, Riley and Derek all ran good, smart races. I was especially pleased to see Maura, Riley and Derek do that in front of the home crowd in their final race at our Elmira College Course.

“Riley and Piper were going back and forth all night and Maura was with them for most of the race after opening up an early gap on the rest of the field. Derek hung tough with Johnny early on, but Johnny had a phenomenal race and left the field behind. It was good to see Derek run through it and finish strong. Neal, Joe and Isabella all held their own after their teammates took off and they posted some of their best times. I really like the way they are progressing.”
