although I don't how many Baptists are in Lithuania where 2nd place CBU athlete Greta Karinauskaite is from.

Stone's comments were great as I agree her strategy was perfect. Also given Stone's statement, I am surprised that Molly Seidel is the only other ND women to win an NCAA outdoor T&F championship when she won that 10k a few years back. Quite a legacy for her considering her dad ran for ND.

Wonderful accomplishments and congrats to her and her family.
