“I thought all the women ran the perfect race strategically,” said Athletics and Cross-Country Director Dave Smith Said. “At 1K, we think she was 12.th The location… tactically executed perfectly. I’m really, really proud of the way they run. “
Freshman Natalie Cook won her first career college race with a time of 20:17.1. Her victory was also the fifth overall victory by a cowgirl in the history of the Cowboy Jamboree.
“She’s obviously very talented and very competitive,” said Smith. At any moment, those two women could flip-flop who was ahead and who was behind.I think there was a bit of sibling rivalry in the final 200 meters.Taylor will come back next time to prove something.

“He’s not very respected,” Smith said. “People don’t realize how good he is and how well he’s done these days. Today’s field contains probably half the men who have a chance at winning an individual national championship. I think he handled them pretty well.”
Victor Sisama They also had an impressive and tactical race, finishing third after being outside the top 50 for most of the first half. He beat his career-best by almost seven seconds with his time of 23:20.5, ranking fourth in the history of the Jamboree.
