2016 Bradley Intercollegiate -- FINAL RESULTS
"The purpose of this competition was to improve our depth. Each runner was tasked with knowing the pace of their race at the first mile and maintaining that pace while having their last surge happen over the last 1000m or K. We achieved that goal across the board. Everyone who raced is making improvements in workouts and it is translating to their racing, which is very exciting for this Northwestern team!" said head coach 'A Havahla Haynes.
The Bradley Intercollegiate was the second of six meets for the Wildcats this season. Their next appearance will be a week from now in Minneapolis, Minn. at the Griak Invitational.
