FOLEY, Ala.— Isabela Ross earns first-team all-conference and top-five finish at the SBC Cross Country Championship at the Graham Creek Nature Preserve Saturday morning.

Isabela Ross led the charge for the Black and Gold, earning a 5th-place finish with a time of 17:21.40 to earn first-team all-conference accolades. Transfer student Kendall Drisko followed in after with a time of 18:46.90 for a 28th place showing. Returner Sarah Parnell completed the race in 19:14.70, for the 42nd place, closely followed by Kristina Stojanovic, just two seconds behind, placing 44th with a time of 19:16.70. Newcomers Brynn Kelso and Sylvia White recorded the 47th and 93rd positions, with times of 19:29.10 and 23:11.00.
