by Steve Underwood It continues to be a season of f i r s t s for the s u p e r b Hope W o m e n ' s Cross-country T e a m . They won their first Hope Invite, beat Alma in a dual for the first time, and then completed their first u n b e a t e n dual meet season. On S a t u r d a y , Nov. 9, they copped their first MIAA c h a m p i o n s h i p at the Holland Country Club. Well, if the Dutch had any nonbelievers before, they m u s t h a v e vanished now. Using their incredible depth to its u t m o s t , Hope crushed the eight t e a m field at the G r e a t L a k e s Regional meet in T e r r e Haute, Indiana last S a t u r d a y . Their r e w a r d ? Look out, Atlanta, here c o m e the Dutch! T h e y ' v e e a r n e d their first e v e r berth to the NCAA Division III N a t i o n a l C h a m p i o n s h i p s this S a t u r d a y in that southern city. Hope totalled only 28 points in winning the m e e t , p a c k i n g all five of their s c o r e r s in a 12second span between fifth and eleventh place. Wooster (Ohio) College was a distant second with 52 m a r k e r s , while MIAA rival Alma took third with 63. The O r a n g e and Blue had the kind of depth coaches d r e a m about. " T h a t ' s the way y o u ' r e supposed to do it," said Coach William Vanderbilt of the t e a m ' s winning method. " T h e y really did run very well u n d e r a d v e r s e conditions." The Dutch went out hard on a sunny day that failed to dry up a g u a g m i r e of a course that had been s w a m p e d by .rain the
previous week. K a r e n P a n s e , running despite a bad case of tendonitis in her ankle, blasted out to an early lead in the first mile. P a c e d by P a u s e ' s courageous effort, the e n t i r e t e a m rallied to the fore. Sue DeSanctis wound up being Hope's top finisher. With another fantastic big meet effort that she's known for, DeSanctis was fifth in 19:58 for the 5000 m e t e r (3.1 mile) distance. P a n s e held on to take sixth in 20:00. " S h e w a s r e a d y to go," said an a m a z e d Vanderbilt of DeSanctis' race. " A n d K a r e n P a n s e just ran a super r a c e ! " But the Dutch p a r a d e didn't stop there. T a u n a J e c m a n , who was a s high as third late in the race, took eighth in 20:03. Dana Barsness, who h a s led Hope with her come- from- behind e f f o r t s much of the y e a r , was tenth in 20:09. T e r e s a C h e e t h a m ran another g r e a t r a c e in 11th with a 20:10. The other Hope r u n n e r s included Amy Strieker who was 31st in 21:20. Missy F l e m i n g , also battling injurv problems, was 41st in 22:04. Hope was also selected to host the G r e a t Lakes Regional next year, but for now, the Dutch a r e undoubtedly excited about flying to Atlanta for the Nationals this Saturday! " I t ' s a g r e a t opportunity for the women to g e t , " concluded Vanderbilt.
