The Nittany Lions, the conference’s best team, also stand ahead of several perennial cross country powerhouses, including Georgetown (No. 12), and Stanford (No. 14).
The Nittany Lions posted a history making performance at the Big Ten Cross Country Championships last weekend on campus, winning the program’s first team title by narrowly defeating Illinois and Minnesota. Senior Bridget Franek paced the Nittany Lion contingent with an individual victory — the first by a Penn State athlete since Kim McGreevy won the Big Ten title in 1996.
