SAINT LEO, Fla. — After qualifying for the second year in a row for the NCAA Division II Cross Country Championship meet, California Baptist University made history Saturday morning with its highest finish yet at The Abbey Course in Saint Leo, Florida.
The No. 23-ranked Lancers took ninth overall with 274 team points, becoming the first PacWest women's cross country team to crack the top-10. It was a considerable improvement from last year's 23rd-place finish, with five Lancers finishing in the top-100 for the first time in program history.
Katie Deimling led the squad with an All-American finish, clocking in at 21 minutes, 30.1 seconds for 39th place out of 240 runners. It was the second time in her career she broke under the 22-minute mark.
Anett Somogyi followed with a strong showing in her first NCAA championship. The freshman took 54th overall with a time of 21:49.6.
Kate Robinson wasn't far behind Somogyi, taking 69th place in 22 minutes flat. Kim Rabenstein was right on her tail for 81st, crossing the finish line in 22:09.2. Emeline Delanis rounded out the scoring group with a time of 22:19.8, which was good for 97th.
Fruzsi Ladanyi and Leanda du Bruyn clocked in at 22:58.0 and 23:09.2, respectively, to finish the day for the Lancers.
CBU returns home and takes time off before starting up the track season in 2017.
