Donner's DebriefingÂ
"This weekend has always been productive for our program. The rust-busting is over, and it is time to start evaluating our potential 32-person Patriot League Championships team, with the championship only a month away. We are taking some of our top runners to Penn State to get used to a banked track and to see great competition. The Bison Open is large, with 19 smaller schools, but each event will have some quality at the top. It is a weekend that the entire team can compete, and various goals and missions depend on the individual athlete."
