NEW BRITAIN, Conn. - The women's cross country team finished third at the Ted Owen's Invitational, defeating CCSU and Fairfield. Emily Anderson led the Ram's taking third place with a time of 18:28. Anderson's time is URI's 4th fastest ever at the Stanley Quarter course.

Also contributing to the team's victory were Katherine Guilfoyl (19:14), Andrea Newton (19:15), Lindsay Vieira (19:23), Courtney Klenk (19:25), Megan O'Shea (19:31), and Kayla Murphy (20:33).

"We were pleased with our team performance today," said head coach Laurie Feit-Melnick. "Our team finished a close third to UConn despite the fact that we rested two of our top runners, Cindy Smith and Jamie Sweeney. Emily Anderson really stepped up to lead our team today."
