GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. - Cornerstone's women's cross country team cut 1:28 off the school record to post the fastest team time in a 5K cross country race at the Knight Invitational. The team finished in sixth place out of 22 teams, with host Calvin College taking first. Jill Louisignau, Audrey Tremaine, Julie Contreras, Julie Oosterhouse, and CallyAnne Wyma combined for a time of 95:11.

Four Golden Eagles ran personal bests: Tramine, Contreras, Kala Ovokaitys, and Erin Laplander. Tramine's time ranks her third on the school's fastest freshman list and Wyma crossed the finish line in 59th place, but lost her shoe with the timing chip near the 2K mark. Officials used back-up finish cameras to position her in the results.
