Grace Thek the best 5th runner at NCAA XC Champs 2013

Who's that girl? Grace Thek is a name most of you will never know, but she's a big reason why Providence won the second title ever. Thek raced only three substantial races through the fall to avoid injury and the plan worked. Not only was Thek a solid number five, she was the best fifth running in the country on the men's or women's side finishing 76th overall and 54th in team scoring.
