Augustana - Falch Win NCAA Central Region CC Championship

11/3/2012 12:46:52 PM

Joplin, Mo. - Runa Falch won the 2012 NCAA DII Central Region Cross Country Championship as she helped lead the No. 1 ranked Augustana College to the team championship.  Winona State placed second and U-Mary third as all three teams advance to the NCAA DII National Cross Country Championship in Joplin, Mo. on November 17.

The Vikings had scored 29 points as they had five runners place in the top 11 in the race.  Falch finished first, Leah Black third, Kristin Brondbo fifth, Kyle Blakeslee 10th, and Annie Pfiefle 11th.

Jessica Young shattered the Winona State individual meet record as the Warrior women’s cross country team finished second at the NCAA Central Region Championship. With its second place showing, the Warriors punched their ticket to the NCAA National Championship meet for the first time in school history.   Young posted a time of 21:24 to finish eighth individually, beating the previous WSU meet record by over 30 seconds. The previous record of 21:57 was held by Kayla Gudmundson, who set it at the NSIC Championship last season.

Powered by a tremendous trio of seniors, the University of Mary women’s cross country team earned its fourth straight trip to the NCAA championships. The Marauders finished third at the NCAA Central Region meet as Melissa Agnew, Dakota Wolf and Alicia Nehl each earned All-Region recognition. A two-time cross country All-American, Agnew placed second overall to lead the Marauders regional efforts. The senior from Onamia, MN, led the 6,000 meter race at the halfway point before dropping back one slot. She traversed the trail in a time of 20:48.9.
