HAVERFORD, Pa. – With the full squad running just five days prior, the Haverford College women's cross country team entered two individuals in the Main Line Invitational on Thursday. The course was run on Haverford's Alumni Cross Country course.

Freshman Nicole Giannetti was the Fords' top finisher in the meet as she finished with a personal-best time of 18:36.70 over the three mile course.  Her time was nearly a full minute better than her collegiate debut of 19:22 during the Haverford Open. She placed 33rd overall in the field of 61 runners that included several Division I schools.

Fellow freshman Amelia Williams finished 49th overall with a time of 19:51.50. Williams was running the first collegiate race of her career on Thursday afternoon while breaking the 20-minute mark.

Women's cross country will be back on the road next Saturday, October 4 when it competes at the Paul Short Invitational at Lehigh University. That race will get underway at 10 a.m.
