Grace Ping Strikes Again! Mid-Week XC Rundown

Grace Ping Strikes Again!

  • Seventh-grader Grace Ping strikes again! The upset victor at Roy Griak ran 17:23.2 over 5k to score a nearly three-minute victory at the Plainview-Elgin-Millville Invitational in Plainview, Minn. She ranks No. 15 in the nation right now, but we can't wait to see what she can do in the post-season, especially after Griak runner-up Judy Pendergast posted the nation's fastest time over three miles in 16:16.
