Combined Paul Short Mideast Womens Results

Now updated with Swarhmore's results. They ran in the unseeded race, and have now been included here.

If all of the Women's Mideast Regional teams had run in the same race yesterday, taking out all of the other teams, the following is the team scoring for what might be considered the Mideast Preregional Meet (remembering that ranked team Salisbury did not compete). Dickinson won in impressive fashion. Indeed, if you take out their first two runners, they still would have won. Team scores in this scenario: 1. Dickinson 54; 2. Haverford 102; 3. Johns Hopkins 103; 4. Grove City 158; 5. Swarthmore 167; 6. Allegheny 176; 7. Gettysburg 193; 8. Messiah 213; 9. Elizabethtown 225; 10. Muhlenberg 261; 11. Susquehanna 348; 12. Juniata 349; 13. Marywood 370; 14. Ursinus 396; 15. Carnegie-Mellon 419; 16. Misericordia 431; 17. Moravian 467; 18. Gwynedd-Mercy 485; 19. Albright 514; 20. McDaniel 516; 21. Kings 617. Please again remember that not all teams may have been at full strength for various reasons.

Grove City Harriers Excel in Bethlehem, PA

The Mens and Womens Cross Country teams showed the significant progress that has been made this year with impressive performances this afternoon at the Brooks Paul Short Run at Lehigh University. In races with many Division II teams and many regionally ranked Division III teams, the women came in second out of 33 teams and the men finished 13th out of 39 teams.

Grove City junior Kristen Carter (Bellingham, Washington) won the women's race in a time of 21:47. Congratulations, Kristen, for this significant accomplishment!

In coming in second, the women who had been unranked in the Mideast Division beat four teams that are currently ranked in the top ten in the Region. While not all of these teams may have been at full strength today (for example, it is noted that Mia Symoniak and Carly Latus of Allegheny have not yet competed this year and each of them did well in the Mideast Regional last year), the Grove City women have certainly shown today that they deserve to be ranked. Here are the teams competing today from our region:

Womens Team	Place Today	Regional Ranking 9/25
Grove City	Second	Unranked
Allegheny	Fourth	Fifth
Gettysburg	Fifth	Tenth
Messiah	Ninth	Seventh
Elizabethtown	Tenth	Eighth
Carnegie Mellon	Twenty-Second	Ninth

Running today without reigning PAC Champion Dan Spaulding, the men also bettered many regionally ranked teams. Based on these results, expect to see Muhlenberg and Grove City added to the top ten in the region when the regional rankings are announced on Tuesday. Here are the results of the ranked teams in the race today, together with Muhlenberg and Grove City:

Men's Team	Finish Today	Regional Ranking 9/25/07
Dickinson	First	Fourth
Johns Hopkins	Third	Fifth
Muhlenberg	Fourth	Unranked
Grove City	Thirteenth	Unranked
Gettysburg	Eighteenth	Tenth
Messiah	Nineteenth	Seventh
Elizabethtown	Twenty-Fourth	Ninth

Finally, it should be noted that the first three teams in our region competed in the Brown Races for Division I and ranked Division II/III teams. Thus, Haverford, Allegheny and Carnergie Mellon had excellent results in the men's race; and Dickinson, Haverford and Johns Hopkins likewise in the women's race. The times of these teams would have placed each of them ahead of any of the teams from our region in the White races.

Bill Sudeck Invitational at Case Western Reserve

Led by a third place finish from junior Kristen Carter, the Wolverine Women finished fifth of fourteen teams in the annual Bill Sudeck Invitational.
