WOMEN'S 6K

The Lumberjacks placed sixth overall out of 13 total teams, scoring 168 points. Senior Lex Craven led Humboldt with a runner-up finish in the race, clocking 21:52.12, just eight seconds behind the winner. Sophomore Charlotte Leonard followed in 40th at 23:12.83, while sophomore Lyla Fedio finished 44th in 23:20.73.
