Winneconne, Wis. - Against a heavily competitive field at the NCAA Division III Midwest Regional Cross Country Championship, the Illinois Wesleyan men's and women's teams took 12th and third, respectively, at the Lake Breeze Golf Club Saturday (November 10), with three women earning all-region.

Senior Rachael Williams (22:17), senior Elise Anderson (22:30), and junior Carmin Beck (22:34) each earned all-region honors, taking 11th, 19th, and 25th, respectively.
