CANYON, Texas –
The West Texas A&M women's cross country team played host to the 2015 Buffalo Stamped on Saturday, Sept. 19 at The Range. The Lady Buffs placed fifth with 108 points while eventual Lone Star Conference rival Eastern New Mexico took home the team title with 32 points. The Greyhounds were led by individual winner Amber Saiz who finished the 6k course in 23:20.10.
 
"The jump from a 4k race to a 6k showed up today," head women's coach Kimberly Dudley said. "We will take away the positives and keep pressing on. Some of the girls, who have struggled with injuries, will be back soon and that should change the overall team dynamics."
 
Midwestern State took second (50 points) followed by Lubbock Christian (66) and New Mexico-Highlands (102). The Lady Buffs were fifth (102) while Oklahoma Panhandle State finished sixth (177).
 
For the second consecutive race, freshman Chloe Smith was the first to cross the finish line placing 12th with a time of 24:33.45. Caitlyn Cecchini was the second runner for the Lady Buffs (23rd, 25:27.01) followed by Stephanie Ovalle (24th, 25:43.96). Chandler Martin (28th, 25:57.35) and Stephanie Salgado (51st, 31:58.53) rounded out the top five for WT.
 
The Lady Buffs will return to action on Oct. 3, at the Chile Pepper Festival in Fayetteville, Ark.
