Northfield, Minn. – The Gustavus Adolphus women’s cross country team left the campus of St. Olaf College with a sixth place showing at the St. Olaf Invitational on Saturday. The Gusties ended the afternoon with 165 team points trailing St. Olaf (55), Minnesota State, Mankato (92), Carleton (94), Minnesota-Duluth (107), and St. Thomas (147). Saturday’s sixth place mark was in a field of 24 teams.

The Gustie women will look forward to Friday, September 28 when they travel to Minnetrista, Minn., to compete in the St. Thomas/Crown Invitational.
