Katie Richard

Katie Richard, a second-year kinesiology student from Charlottetown, finished eighth overall at the AUS Cross Country Championship on Saturday, October 29. She finished the 8km race with a time of 31:10 and was named a second team all-star. The event was hosted by UPEI at Fox Meadow golf course.

"Katie put in a lot of work this summer and had a solid showing at Canada Games, so we knew she was trending in the right direction," said head coach Mike Peterson. "We felt the time was right for her to have an aggressive AUS race and go for an all-star spot. She hasn't hit her ceiling yet, and I'm optimistic that she'll be on the podium next year."
