W. Cross Country: Stacy Kim breaks Penn course record

NEW YORK - A Penn record fell on Friday at the cross country Heptagonal Championships in New York. Sophomore Stacy Kim broke the Penn course record of 17:47.7, set by Chris Lundy back in 1990, with a time of 17:33.9. Penn's performance in the meet as a team was even more impressive, though. The Quakers placed third out of the eight Ivy League teams, behind Columbia, which took the championship for the fourth year in a row, and Princeton. This was a big improvement over last year's last-place finish. "No one saw us coming, and that was the best part of it all," Stacy Kim said. A false start at the beginning of the race only took away some of the nervous energy surrounding the Quakers. "I'm happy, happy, even more happy," Penn coach Gwen Harris said about her teams' finish, after she excitedly gathered them all around in a circle to announce the good news to them. Placing eighth overall, Stacy was followed close behind by her sister, Claire Kim, who finished 16th overall. It was the next three Quakers, freshman Leah Brogan, sophomore Jamie Liberti and junior Christina Morrison, who sealed their third-place finish by crossing the line 23rd, 26th and 31st, respectively. Harris was impressed with the runners' improvement over the course of the season, noting that in their first meet of the season at Van Cortlandt Park, both Yale and Princeton beat them out. "We had the strength, we just needed the confidence," said Liberti, who shaved over two minutes off her best time for the course. Brogan felt honored to run "with the 'P' on her heart" and was a key contributor in her first Heps race. Another record also fell that day. Caroline Bierbaum of Columbia finished first, breaking the Ivy League course record that had stood for 23 years by just over eight seconds. The team consists of young runners ƒ_"ƒ_" there's only one senior on the roster - and the Quakers proved that they could run together, up against more experienced runners from other schools. "We're young and we're not going anywhere," Harris said.
