STANLEY QUARTER, CT. – Pace University Women's Cross Country continued its 2025 campaign at the Ted Owen Invitational on Saturday, finishing ninth out of nine collegiate teams in the women's 5K race hosted by Central Connecticut State University. The meet brought together programs from across the region and provided the Setters with another opportunity to test themselves on a competitive course.

For the third straight week, senior Raelle Gorman led the way for Pace. She covered the 5K course in 22:43.4, good for 81st place in a crowded field. Senior Emma Voykhanskaya was the Setters' second finisher, posting a time of 25:15.9 to secure 85th place.

Just behind her, sophomore Inara Coles crossed in 26:44.1, earning 87th place. Senior Pricilla Del Toro added Pace's fourth scoring result, running 27:41.1 to take 88th place, while sophomore Alexandra Harrison rounded out the scoring five in 27:55.8 for 89th place.

Together, the Setters' pack produced a total team score that slotted them into ninth, with each runner contributing toward the team's placement. While the standings reflected a challenging day, the group maintained consistency by once again finishing with all five scorers within a relatively narrow range.

The Setters will return to competition on October 11th at the Highlander Invitational in Branch Brook, N.J., set for Saturday at 12:15 p.m.
