Gogert Earns All-Region Honors

Corinne Gogert

Standout freshman Corrine Gogert was named to the 2007 Division III Women’s All-West Region Cross Country Team today. Gogert earned the honor by placing 32nd in the 114 athlete field at the West Region meet last weekend at McIver Park.

The All-Region nod caps off a phenomenal freshman year for the Arlington native. Gogert was the top finisher for the Lutes at six of the eight meets this year. Gogert set a new school record for the 6k at the PLU Invitational when she ran 22:36, only to break it again two weeks later at the Beaver Classic when she ran 22:35.

This is the first All-Region honors for a PLU harrier since the 2004 season when Bethany De Vilbiss and Ashley Jamieson both made the team by placing 3rd and 14th respectively.

All-Region honors are given to an athlete who finishes in the top 35 at their respective regional meet.
