Reyes and Harding Power Huntington to Top-Five 5K Finishes 

Results
Grand Rapids, Mich. – The Huntington University's women's cross country team turned in an impressive performance at the NAIA Great Lakes Challenge, highlighted by top-five finishes from Shaylynn Reyes and Molly Harding and a second place team finish among the 23-team field that made up the white division.

Reyes led the Foresters with a 3rd-place finish in the 5K, crossing the line in 18:58.0, while Harding followed closely in 5th place at 19:07.3. Their strong showings anchored a deep Huntington squad that also included Olivia Howell (37th, 19:54.9), Mackenzie Brewer (40th, 20:02.3), Lily Spaulding (30th, 19:47.6), and Amelia Strzechowski (52nd, 20:11.0). 

This performance marked one of Huntington's strongest showings of the season, with Reyes and Harding both finishing in the top five against a deep, competitive field. The Foresters demonstrated remarkable consistency and depth, with multiple runners posting season-best times.
