Ashley Silva was right behind Shearer, coming in 86th place with a time of 20:20. Jessica Heil finished the trek in 21:15, Laura Lundin came in next with a time of 21:31, and Kristen Shell clocked a 22:31.

UNLV is off next weekend, but is back at it Saturday, Sept. 29 when it travels to Riverside, Calif. for the UC Riverside Invitational.
