State College’s Kileigh Kane is a Centre Daily Times Athlete of the Week.

The Lady Little Lions’ junior cross country runner led all area girls’ competitors Saturday at the PIAA championships with a time of 19 minutes, 10 seconds in Hershey.

Her performance was good enough for 12th place overall in Class 3A — in a field of 212 athletes — which was the best finish by a State College girls’ cross country athlete since 2007. Thanks in part to Kane’s effort, the Lady Little Lions finished fifth overall out of 18 teams.
