TERRE HAUTE – The Milwaukee women's cross country team finished in the 11^th spot out of 18 teams today at the John McNichols Invitational hosted by Indiana State.
 
The Panthers finished with 296 team points, just behind 10^th place Bellarmine's 287.
 
"We finished much better than we did last year at this meet," head coach Andrew Basler said. "It was definitely a deeper field than we've had so far this year, so I thought we made some good steps forward as a program."
 
Anelise Egge led Milwaukee with a 28^th place finish and a career-best time of 18:19.5. Cailin Kinas was next, securing the 46^th spot with a time of 18:41.9. Eileen Tocco rounded out Milwaukee's top three, finishing in 69^th with her own career-best time of 19:01.3.
