Lathrop Finishes First at Houghton Invite

The ESF women's cross-country team finished third overall among 11 teams at the Houghton Highlander Invitational.

Senior Marissa Lathrop added a first-place finish to her long list of accomplishments as an ESF athlete - she became the first woman in ESF cross-country history to win an individual title. Lathrop ran a 24:30 in the 6K course, placing ahead of several SUNY Geneseo runners who had finished ahead of Lathrop the previous weekend at the Geneseo Invitational. Sophomores Julie Romano (6th - 25:15) and Eric Cocca (12th - 25:45) also finished in the top 15. There were 108 runners in the race.
