2024 Kim Duyst Twilight Invitational Results

TURLOCK, Calif. – Paced by senior Grace Southern for the second consecutive meet to open the season, Academy of Art women's cross country challenged host Stanislaus State, Chico State, and others in the Kim Duyst Twilight at the River Oaks Golf Course on Saturday.

Competing in her and the team's first 6k of the year after their 5k in the Seawolf Invitational one week ago, Southern was initially in third with runners from Stan State and Chico State both in front and in back of her position. The finish line had the Wildcats' Della Molina and Iresh Molina in the top two spots as Southern battled with the Warriors' Annie Wild for third, ultimately taking fourth out of the 77-runner field with 21:13.5 on the clock. 

Following Southern, graduate student Lina Hanich turned in time of 23.00.6 in 23rd overall while fellow senior Michaela Andrews placed 45th at 25:22.1. Sophomore Toni-Ann Lindsay rounded out the Urban Knights in action on Saturday, going 32:48.7 for 72nd overall.
