Elizabethtown Takes Ninth in DMR at Penn State

STATE COLLEGE, Pa. --- The Elizabethtown College women's distance medley relay team finished ninth out of 12 schools at the Penn State National Invitational on Friday evening.

The Blue Jays were timed in 12:22.37 for the 4,000-meter race, coming in ahead of Division I schools Army and Norfolk State along with the Tennessee "B" team that did not finish.

The time of 12:22.37 was the third-fastest in program history and just eight seconds shy of the school record as well as an NCAA Division III provisional qualifying time.

Senior Erin Fisher (McEwensville, PA/Warrior Run) ran the 1,200 meters in 3:47.7, before passing along to graduate student Lori Havrilak (West Grove, PA/St. Mark's, DE) who went 59.9 in the 400 meters.
