In the first GBTC team cross-country Grand Prix race both the men and women won. The men by a mere point over the Central Mass Striders and the GBTC women were the only club to finish a team. New GBTC member Emily Kroshus, a Princeton grad and now grad student in public health, led the team. The next club race will be on the roads in the Ollie 8km Road Race Grand Prix in Boston on Saturday.
