FULLERTON, Calif. --- On the eve of tomorrow PacWest Conference Cross Country Championships some members of the Biola Cross Country program had the chance to be showcased at the CSU Fullerton Titan Invitational.

Head Coach Sean Henning sent a small group of runners to nearby Fullerton to compete in a men's 8k and women's 5k in order to get one extra meet in.

"For three of them, this was their first race of the season," said Henning. "We also have three members of our team racing unattached, so it was great to see them finish up their season at this meet. I saw great effort and competitiveness. It's be great for them to see where they are at on a quick course nearing the end of their seasons."

Aditya Lal, Omar Ledezma and Chris Campbell represented the Eagles on the men's side, while Taylor Lawsen, Natalie Renfroe and Elizabeth Pintarich ran for the women's contingent.

Lal was the top finisher for the guys, finishing 83rd among the non-NCAA Division I competitors with a final time of 28:14. Campbell followed with a 29:38 and Ledezma polished it off with his 30:05. 

Lawsen and Renfroe kept close to one another throughout the race, finishing 18th and 19th, respectively. Lawsen put out a 19:22 and Renfroe a 19:31. Pintarich was not too far behind with a 40th place finish and 20:42.

The Eagles look to lock up at least top-3 finishes tomorrow in the 6k and 8k PacWest Championship races at Crystal Springs Cross Country Course. The women's race begins at 8:00 a.m. and the men's race at 9:00 a.m. Follow results live at
