COLUMBIA, Ky. -- Following their opening weekend win at Murray State University, the Lindsey Wilson College cycling team returned to campus only to find something else to celebrate on Monday.

The Blue Raiders first road race win of the season was chronicled on VeloNews.com.

"It's huge to be mentioned by VeloNews," Lindsey Wilson cycling coach David Grigsby said. "VeloNews is cycling's New York Times; every cyclist in the world reads it. It's just great for our kids and our program."

The article highlighting the Midwest Collegiate Cycling Conference's season-opening race mentioned the Blue Raiders' dominance in the race and grabbing an early lead in the chase for the conference title.

"Our team is incredibly excited," Grigsby said. "The story was barely up a few minutes before one of my personal coaching clients contacted me from Oklahoma to tell me about it. When I posted the link on Facebook, within minutes I received a dozen congratulations and emails from friends."

The article ends by mentioning Lindsey Wilson's home road event coming up this weekend.

"Again, it's great publicity for our event," Grigsby said. "We were all elated about the way our road season started and this is just icing on the cake."
