Memphis, TN- Christian Brothers University freshman Eleni Stemmildt continued her outstanding debut season, capturing the individual title with a personal-best time of 20:59.2 to lead a strong showing from the CBU women's cross country team.

Stemmildt separated herself from the field, finishing more than 41 seconds ahead of the runner-up and defeating competitors from Division I programs UT Martin and Arkansas State.

While Stemmildt took the top spot, the Buccaneers' performance went well beyond their freshman standout.

Sophomore Phoebe Steel continued the strong showing with a season-best 23:41.6, placing 22nd overall. Senior Annaggeliki Zannetou followed just three spots later in 25th with a season-best 24:01.0, giving the Buccaneers four runners among the top 25 finishers.

Freshman Ines Blanco-Embil added another personal best for CBU, crossing the line in 25:04.3 to finish 32nd. Junior Laura De Llano also recorded a personal best with a time of 25:54.8.

CBU's depth continued with Elen Skar recording a season-best 27:34.8, while Anastasija Cernova finished in a personal-best 27:48.6.

The Buccaneers left the meet with an individual champion, two top-10 finishers, four runners inside the top 25, and multiple personal and season bests.
