Kelsey Hanno paced the Siena women for the second straight week, finishing as one of four Siena women to complete the course in under 20 minutes. Hanno's time of 19:48 was just six seconds faster than teammate Michelle Milton who ran three seconds faster than her twin sister Kim and senior Joan Paul.
