A Pack Of Success At MIAC Championship Meet

Results

NORTHFIELD, Minn. (10/28/23)---Concordia lived up to the ol' adage of – a team that runs together succeeds together.

The Cobbers used a "pack" mentality to record four Top 50 finishes and a fifth who was only eight places out of that group as they posted a seventh-place team finish at the MIAC Championship Meet.

It is the third straight seventh-place finish for the Cobbers at the conference meet. 

The Concordia Top 4 all finished within 6 seconds of one another, while the final member of the scoring group made it five runners crossing the finish line within 14 seconds.

First-year athlete Grace Ingebretsen led the Cobbers in her first conference meet. She was five seconds ahead of a group of three that crossed the line side-by-side. Ingebretsen clocked a time of 24:18.9 over the 6K course, which is almost two full minutes off the time she recorded on the same course at the Running of the Cows Meet in mid-September.

It is the second time this season that Ingebretsen led the Cobbers at a meet. She also crossed the line first among CC athletes at the season-opening MSU Moorhead Dragon Twilight meet.

Sophomore Sophia Revoir, first-year athlete Amelia Rowley and junior Drew Frolek paced each other throughout the meet and finished in 47th, 49th and 50th place.

Revoir recorded her best finish at a conference meet by running a 24:23.20 to lead the trio. That time is precisely 2 minutes faster than her time on the course earlier this year. Her 47th-place finish is an improvement of 21 spots from last year at the meet.    

Rowley's official finishing time was only .70 of a second behind Revoir. Her time on the results sheet was 24:23.7, 58 seconds faster than the mark she clocked at the Carleton course earlier in the year.

Frolek recorded the second Top 50 finish of her career at the MIAC Meet. She placed 44th as a first-year runner in 2021. Frolek was less than a second behind Rowley with a time of 24:24.6.

Senior Elsie Hatlevig posted a time of 24:32.2 and was the No.58 finisher. Her time was 43 seconds faster than when she led the team at the Running of the Cows meet earlier in the year.                    

UP NEXT: Concordia's next chance to shine will come at the NCAA North Regional Meet on Saturday, Nov. 11 at Whitetail GC in Colfax, Wis. That is the same course that the Cobbers competed at for the UW-Eau Claire Blugold Invitational at the end of September.
