Ceronie’s Comments - “Kristen suffered an injury during the summer and needed to redshirt the cross country season. She came back strong during the outdoor season to score in the MAC meet. I thought given the circumstances she did a nice job last season to put herself back into the mix for scoring at the MAC. She ended the year with the 12th-best performance in the conference in both the 5,000 and 10,000.”
