The Royals were the only Division II team competing in the meet.
BOONE, N.C. - Andrea Guerra (Anaheim, Calif., Loara) paced the Royals to a third place finish at the Appalachian State Mountaineer Open. Queens University of Charlotte was the only NCAA DI team in the field as Ohio State took the team title with 15 points and Appalachian State edged the Royals for second 61 to 79. Western Carolina, East Tennessee, and UNC-Ashville were third, fourth, and fifth, respectively.
Guerra finished tenth overall in 18:29.4 for the 5k course, with teammates Kimone Hewitt (Orange County, Calif., Segerstown) (18:35.0) and Rosa Young (Spartanburg, South Carolina, Dorman High School) (18:36.2) directly behind in 11th and 12th. Royals Emilia Skolubowicz (Myslowice, Poland, Myslowice) and Mathilde Timboni (Prévessin-Möens, France, Prévessin-Möens) contributed to team scoring finishing in 30th place at 19:24.0 and 32nd at 19:44.5, while Holly Annas (Granite Falls, N.C., South Caldwell) added depth also breaking 20:00 in 34th in the 56-woman field.
“Not only are we stronger up front with our top three than we ever have been,” said Coach Scott Simmons, “but our depth through number six is also the best ever. We've still got a long season and we will only improve from here.”
The Royals will be off next week and will return to action October 1 at the Greater Louisville Cross Country Classic.
