Caroline Lapish Adds to Track Legacy at Tri-C
Runner qualifies for NJCAA outdoor championships in first meet of season
The first outdoor track meet of the 2018 season established where Caroline Lapish will run her last meet for Cuyahoga Community College.
Lapish punched her ticket to the NJCAA Outdoor Track and Field Championships in the 3,000-meter steeplechase after posting a time of 12:29.4 at the recent Alan Connie Shamrock Invitational. The championships conclude the season in May.
