Two Behrend Women's Cross Country Runners Named All-Conference

The Penn State Behrend women's cross country team recently saw two of its runners named to the 2009 All-AMCC team.  Junior runner Emily Berry (Reno, PA/Rocky Grove) and sophomore runner Jenna Fatica (Erie, PA/Villa Maria) were both selected to the All-AMCC team by a vote of conference coaches. 

This is the third straight season that Berry has been named to the squad.  For Fatica, this is her second consecutive selection to the all-conference team.

The Behrend Lions women's cross country team earned a third place finish this fall behind champion Franciscan and runner-up Frostburg State. 

At the conference championship meet Berry finished in eleventh place overall (27:19.1) while Fatica came in at fourteenth (27:31.3).  Berry's time was the fourth-best finish by a junior in the race, while Fatica had the third-best time for a sophomore.

Fatica will now continue competing for the blue and white as a member of the Penn State Behrend track & field team.
