A Manitowoc Lincoln grad and a senior at Edgewood College in Madison qualified over the weekend for the NCAA Division-3 National Cross-Country Meet in Lansing, Michigan.
Ally Verbauwhede of Whitelaw competed Saturday in the North Regional championship at St. Olaf College in Minnesota.
Ally covered the 6k distance in 22-minutes 39-seconds, good for 14th place out of 230 runners.
By virtue of her top-15 finish, Verbauwhede will now prepare for the national cross-country meet this Saturday, November 19th at Forest Akers Golf Course in Lansing.
The meet starts at 11:00 a.m. and Ally will be joined by Edgewood Eagles teammate Rachel Ehrhart who finished 9th Saturday and like Verbauwhede earned All-Region honors.
