Roberts raced to a seventh-place finish as the senior came through the finisher's chute in 23:54.2.

Junior Emily Concepcion clocked a 24:23.0, good for 13th.
Fogg's honor was the third of the senior's career. She is now the first Ram to earn three all-league nods since Emily Manfra earned her third in 2019. Overall, the York, Maine product is the third-ever Suffolk student-athelte to have three all-conference awards alongside Manfra and Emma Weisse. The trio is a in a three-way tie for a program record all-conference awards.
