(INDIANAPOLIS) Invaders' Stephanie Dueringer finished in 10th and Mary Duerbeck followed in 17th at the Boston Mayor's Cup in historic Franklin Park on October 27th. This premier cross country event, hosted by USATF-NE and the Boston Athletic Association, drew a record participation of over 700 athletes.

The 13th edition of the Mayor's Cup drew a very deep and competitive field of collegiate & post-collegiate distance runners that included past National Champions. Kristin Chisum, a former U.S. champion at 15-kilometers, won the women's 5k race while Sarah Hann, the 2000 National Club Cross Country Champion finished in fifth.

Coach Greg Harger said, "Duerbeck and Dueringer, were definitely in one of the most competitive cross country events available this season on the domestic scene. This was an excellent test for both at this time of the season." Added Harger, "Neither athlete was satisfied with the outcome and that bodes well for them in the coming weeks of critical training and preparation for December's national club championship meet."
