 Despite Wildcat Bella Burda's hard-fought individual win in just over 20 minutes, Penn State made a statement by landing five runners in the top 10 at the 2017 Mid-Atlantic Regional to secure a 31-point total over second-place Villanova's 60.

Senior Nittany Lion and individual runner-up Jillian Hunsberger led a string of underclassmen--freshman Alison Willingmyre in fifth, sophomore Kathryn Munks in sixth, freshman Danae Rivers in eighth--and junior Greta Lindsey in 10th to convincingly earn their spot in the NCAA Championships.


Junior Gabrielle Forrest of Princeton led the individual qualifiers in third place, followed by Bucknell senior Christine Bendzinski, senior Alexandra Lucki of Maryland, and Georgetown freshman Martha McDonald.

In the men's race, the Princeton men ran away with the title and automatic team qualification after scoring 57 points with three men in the top 10. The next-closest team, Navy, was 52 points behind them and qualified for their second-consecutive NCAA Championships. Villanova finished third with 115 despite strong performances from sophomores Casey Comber, second, and Andrew Marston, third, who both individually qualified.


Sophomore Conor Lundy finished first for the Tigers in fourth, followed by senior Garrett O'Toole and sophomore Gannon Willcutts in seventh and eighth, respectively, senior Noah Kauppila in 13th, and senior Robert Stone in 25th.

Individuals who booked their tickets to the championships include race-winner Jonathan Green of Georgetown and Patrick Reilly of Lehigh.
