some separation. Last week our 2-7 was over 30 seconds and today it was
around 20.” SO#4 Cinco Ranch TX took

Selner and I never planned for this to happen (beating favored teammate Jones). Last
year I dropped out at this meet.” Danielle Selner added, “Tried
some new things today (faster 1st mile to stay closer to Jones), but it didn’t
work out very well. So I’ll adjust for state, I had something left
today”
