Crofford Posts NCAA Provisional Time at Stanford Invitational

Palo Alto, Calif. ? Freshman Lara Crofford took to the track on day two of the Stanford Invitational and earned a NCAA provisional-qualifying time in the 10,000 meters with a time of 33:56.46. Crofford’s time moves her into second place all-time at Nebraska in the 10,000 meters. The top spot is held by Sammie Resh Gdowski who ran a time of 32:34.71 in 1990 at a meet in Walnut, Calif.

 

Crofford (Newville, Pa.) has been a welcomed addition to the Husker distance squad this season as she also ran the fourth fastest time 5,000 meters all-time at Nebraska during the indoor season with a time of 16:43.43 and posted the 11th fastest 3,000 meters all-time indoors at 9:43.13.
