BALTIMORE, MD (October 29, 2022) – The Susquehanna women's cross country team traveled to Maryland for the Landmark Conference Championships on Saturday morning, hosted by Goucher College. The River Hawks claimed third place as a team, while Kallan Carter ran a 22:53.1 to take 2nd place as an individual, earning All-Landmark First Team honors.
Carter would not be the only River Hawk to earn All-Conference honors, as Emma Myers claimed 10th place with a time of 23:48.6, qualifying for All-Landmark Second Team distinction. Griane Reed also had a strong day, as they were the third-highest finishing first-year runner in 19th place with a time of 24:18.2.
Sophomores Rebekah Jones and Jordan Bender finished in close succession, with Jones in 26th at 25:08.0 and Bender in 32nd at 25:37.9. Following the pair would be three consecutive SU finishers. Kylie Dixon would place 47th a time of 26:29.1. Meghan McDonald was the next River Hawk to cross the line, and did so with a lifetime best time of 26:36.0, good enough for 48th on the day. Teammate Sophia Pasquariello would join in crossing the line in that same second, with the two split by just .3 seconds and Pasquariello taking 49th.

A strong fall season for the team saw them finish as high as 4th place in a meet, that being their season opener at the Baltimore Metro Meet. They'll prepare to close out the fall at the NCAA Mid-Atlantic Regionals Meet in two weeks, taking place at the West Branch Cross Country Course in Lock Haven, PA. That will begin at noon on Saturday, November 12.
