Led by an eighth-place finish by Bethany Hasz, the Gophers placed fifth at the NCAA women s cross-country championships on Monday in Stillwater, Okla. It was the highest NCAA team finish in program history.
Minnesota scored 239 points, marking the seventh top-12 team finish in program history and just the fourth top-10 finish for the Gophers women at the NCAA national meet, dating to 1983. Minnesota s previous best finish saw the Gophers come in ninth in the team standings in 2005. At the 2019 championships, the Gophers were 28th.
