Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference Women’s Cross Country
Co-Runner of the week.
Horstmann was the top Division II finisher at the Paul Short Run

21:56 was the fastest ever for a Kutztown runner at the race,
and placed her 59th out of 317 competitors, made up
predominantly of Division I schools.
Horstmann shared the honor with Edinboro’s Rachel Lanzel.
The
Golden Bears return to action next Saturday at the Lafayette
Invitational.
