The Golden Eagles competed in the Gold Race instead of the Blue Race that featured many nationally ranked teams. However, Southern Miss still raced against several respectable programs such as: Iowa, Temple, Idaho State, Northern Iowa, Creighton to name a few.
“Solid day today, we definitely had some jitters and nerves going into this meet,” said Head coach Aaron Kindt. “Having never gone to a meet of this caliber before, I didn’t know how exactly we’d react, it’s not an environment that you can simulate in practice.
