Price Rolls To 3rd-Place Finish at Sugar Bowl Festival
NEW ORLEANS — Taylor Price, producing the second-fastest 5,000-meter time of her Xavier University of Louisiana cross country career, finished third out of 79 women Saturday in the Allstate Sugar Bowl Festival at City Park.
The 5K time was Price's best since her school-record 18:07.5 at the 2016 Sugar Bowl meet, which was run that year at Lafreniere Park in suburban Metairie, La.
"Taylor looks great," XULA head coach Yhann Plummer said. "She committed to training hard all summer and is reaping the benefits of her work."
Price's time tied for 16th on the Gold Nuggets' all-time list at that distance. Price, Catherine Fakler and Zahri Jackson are the only XULA women to run a cross country 5K in less than 19 1/2 minutes more than once.
Freshman Samuel Abdellatif was the Gold Rush's fastest finisher for the second time in as many meets. His 5K time was 16:34, nearly 10 seconds slower than two weeks ago but still tied for ninth in Gold Rush history at that distance — records date to 2002.
Abdellatif placed 15th out of 78 men.
XULA's men will not compete in the National Catholic Championships Friday at Notre Dame, Ind., as orginally scheduled. Next race for the Rush and Nuggets will be the Lake Charles Toyota Cowboy Stampede Sept. 28 at Enos Derbonne Sports Complex in Lake Charles, La. The women will run a 5K at 8:30 a.m., and the men will run four miles at 9 a.m.
