BETHLEHEM, PA. – With Meg Madison claiming the top Tiger spot, the Princeton women's cross country team took fifth place at the NCAA Mid-Atlantic Regional on Friday in Bethlehem, Pa.
Putting up a strong performance in a talented field of top programs, the Tigers went 8-12-22-25-32 for a team score of 99 as all scorers finished in the top 40 runners.
Tallying the highest Ivy League finish, Princeton bested sixth-place Penn by 132 points.
Madison had an incredible race, kicking out a net 23 runners between mile two and the finish. In her final split, she passed four runners to finish eighth with a time of 19:47.8.
Anna McNatt was just behind her, clocking in at 19:51.3 after passing one runner to place 12th.
Caroline Barton was next across the line for Princeton, passing a combined five runners between mile three and 6k. She clocked in at 20:06.6 for 22nd place in her NCAA regional debut.
Emma De Jong was the fourth Tiger scorer, crossing the line at 20:12.4 for 25th place.
The fifth and final Tiger scorer, Olivia Martin, took 32nd place with a time of 20:41.2. Her mark shaved 13 seconds off her previous course time, set at the Paul Short run in October.
First-year Abigail Errington (20:55.6) and senior Maddie Cramer (20:57.2) were the Tiger pushers, taking 38th and 40th as they crossed the finish line two seconds apart.
Together, Princeton's total time was 1:40:39 - two minutes off from first-place West Virginia's. The Tigers also shaved two minutes off their total time from last year's Mid-Atlantic regional.
After a season resume marked with consistent progress, collaborative racing, and success, Princeton will now await the NCAA selection show to learn if any Tigers will advance to the NCAA Championships in Missouri next week.
