The Shippensburg University women's cross country team will compete Saturday morning in the 2026 Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) Championships, which are being hosted by Bloomsburg at its Upper Campus Course. The 6K race is scheduled for 11 a.m.
Live results and additional coverage of the race, along with a course map, parking details and additional championships information is available by clicking on the button above to the right.
Shippensburg's projected lineup includes seven runners who have competed at the PSAC Championships in the past – including three runners (juniors
Victoria Bartholomew,
Brooke Miller and
Caleigh Vincent) who will be running in their third league meet. Five Raiders are expected to make their PSAC Championships debut.
It figures to be an interesting competition for the team title. If the stars align properly on Saturday, it is feasible that Edinboro (No. 1 in the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) Atlantic Region rankings), East Stroudsburg (No. 2), West Chester (No. 3), Shippensburg (No. 5), Slippery Rock (No. 6) and Kutztown (No. 7) could end up with a blue or red trophy by the end of the day.
Using the USTFCCCA's new XCRI-26A algorithm (more about it
HERE), the top-ranked regional runners are West Chester senior Kristina Tapia (7th in 2025, 8th in 2024), Edinboro sophomore Annika von Ahnen (66th in 2025), Kutztown senior Maura Lenhart (10th in 2025, 14th in 2024) and Bloomsburg sophomore Olivia Magagna (2nd in 2025).
Others to watch in the individual team race include Slippery Rock junior Carissa Flynn (17th in 2025, 28th in 2024), Edinboro senior Madeline Hammond (9th in 2025, 77th in 2024) and Cal senior Rosalyn Perozzi (3rd in 2025, 64th in 2024, 63rd in 2023). Last year's champion, Gannon's Emily Bowers, is still with the Golden Knights but has not competed in a race this season.
Shippensburg is in pursuit of its 10th PSAC Championship in program history and its first since 2018. In addition to its nine league titles, the Raiders have also finished second in the conference standings six times (1985, 1986, 1998, 1999, 2017, 2024).
