LUBBOCK, Texas – The Texas Tech cross country team placed both the men's and women's teams in the top 5 of the TTU Open Saturday morning. The men finished third, paced by Edward Rush as the women placed fourth, led by Halena Rahmaan.

"It was a good day for our home meet. Both teams showed tremendous progress and I was proud of the way they competed," said Jon Murray. "It was nice to have a couple of Big 12 teams at the meet which gave us some insight on what we need to do to prepare for the Big 12 championship. This was a good stepping stone for the season."

Rush finished fourth overall with an 8k time of 24:51.87 as Matthew Maki (25:30.67) and Isaac Hernandez (25:31.90) rounded out the top 15 finishing 13^th and 14^th, respectively. Trey Leathers (26:02.92) and Demitrius Guererro (26:03.11) capped off the scoring placing back-to-back at 25^th and 26^th.

Rahmaan placed 13^th overall, registering a time of 22:46.20. Meanwhile, two more Red Raiders found themselves in the top 16 in Hannah Spears (22:52.40) and Taylor Limbaugh (22:58.00). Spears placed 15^th, while Limbaugh was right behind her in 16^th. Limbaugh's personal best in the 6k coming in was 25:21.20. Adele Clarke (23:14.80) crossed the end line 22^nd, with Cassandra O'Pry (23:41.40) capping off the scoring in 26^th.
