Knoxville, TN— The Tennessee Running Club (TRC) made a powerful statement at the Big Orange Invite this weekend, recording a series of impressive finishes across multiple events. Held on Friday and Saturday, May 2–3, the meet saw strong showings from both the men’s and women’s squads despite windy conditions.

The action kicked off Friday with the 1500m races. In the women's section, Bridget Boyle surged to victory with a time of 4:55.58, narrowly edging out teammate Lyndsey Aho, who took second in 4:55.98. Jordan Wetzel and senior Alyssa Coe rounded out the TRC women’s team in fourth and fifth, clocking 5:29.90 and 6:04.02, respectively.
