Koskei Repeats as Champion, Leads Shockers to Runner-Up Finish

MEMPHIS—Winny Koskei claimed her second consecutive conference title as the Wichita State men's and women's cross country teams competed at the American Athletic Conference Cross Country Championships on Friday morning.

Koskei won this meet a year ago, and she repeated her success this year, finishing in first. She crossed the line in 20:15, which nearly beat her season-best time of 20:14.5 from the Bill Dellinger Invitational.

Rebekah Topham finished as the conference runner-up. She outkicked Tulsa's Caitlin Klopfer down the stretch to finish the 6K in 20:29. That time is a new season best for the steeplechase All-American.
