Freshman Sarah Peluse (Buffalo Grove, Ill./Buffalo Grove) was the first Forester female to cross the finish line, completing the 6-kilometer course in 24:20. Her time ranked 189th out of 466 runners in the race and fifth in team history for that distance. Junior Ryann Freeman (Northfield, Minn./Northfield) was next on the team in 230th place with a time of 24:49, the 13th-fastest mark in program history. Sophomore Amanda Glasgow (Wilmette, Ill./New Trier) and juniors Claire Garrett (Wheaton, Ill./Wheaton North) and Brecklind Golovich-Keie (East Jordan, Mich./Charlevoix) narrowly missed putting their names on the program's top 25 list. Their 25:32, 25:44, and 25:46, respectively, rank 26th, 28th, and 29th in team history and were good for places 290, 300, and 301 in the meet. Eleven of the 13 Foresters in the race posted season-best times. Junior Evan Piermont (East Hampton, N.Y./East Hampton) was Lake Forest's top men's runner for the first time in his three seasons. He finished 349th out 551 runners with a career-best 8-kilometer time of 27:49, the fastest by a Forester this year. Sophomore Kelsey Small (Wallingford, Conn./Notre Dame) placed 387th with a season-best time of 28:08 and classmate Peter Sullivan (Lockport, Ill./Lockport) was 453rd in 29:07. Sophomore J.D. Randol (Topeka, Kan./Seaman) finished 520th in a career-best 30:52 and senior David Ehrenreich (Deerfield, Ill./Deerfield) rounded out the team's top five with a 532nd-place time of 31:48. After a weekend off from competition, the Foresters will compete in the Midwest Conference Championship Meet on Saturday, October 31. The meet, which begins at 11:00 a.m., will be hosted by Beloit College at Rock Cut State Park in Loves Park, Illinois.
