MENOMONIE, Wis.—The 4x400m relay team of Sarah Presler, Cianna Hoppe, Chloe Kuhlman, and Sophie Zawisza took ninth at the UW-Stout Open Saturday. No team scores were kept at this competition.

"The entire team has had a busy week of practice and you could see the fatigue in quite a few of them today," said head coach Michael Dunn. "We look to tweak and improve a few things over the next week of practice and get back at it next week Friday and Saturday at MSU-Mankato."

BLC had two top 15 finishers:
Mile       Sarah Presler, 11^th, 5:38.35
4x400 relay         Presler, Cianna Hoppe, Chloe Kuhlman, Sophie Zawisza, 9^th, 4:39.64

"Sarah had a great day; I saw lots of progress in her mile, as she cut off eight seconds from her first mile this year," said assistant coach Brianna Soutthivong. "I'm looking forward to seeing what she has in story in the weeks to come."
