Katzgrau named cross-country captain

KUTZTOWN, PA. — Kimberly Katzgrau of Oak Ridge, NJ (07438) has been named a 2016 team captain for the Kutztown University cross country team.
Katzgrau and Olivia Dettore will return to their leadership roles in 2016 as the Kutztown University women's cross country team has announced captains for the upcoming season.
Katzgrau enters her redshirt-senior season on the heels of top-90 finishes at both of those aforementioned postseason events. She placed in the top-50 three times in 2015, including a season-best 18th place finish as part of KU's runner-up finish at the season-opening Dutchmen Invitational.
Dettore, a redshirt-junior, had four top-50 finishes last season, including a top-10 performance in the Golden Bears' second place finish at the Bulldog Invitational. She also crossed 42nd out of 168 competitors at the PSAC Championships before running a personal-best time of 22:54.4 to finish 53rd at the NCAA Atlantic Regional. Also excelling in the classroom, Dettore is a four-time Dean's List honoree, three-time PSAC Scholar-Athlete, and in February was named a member of the 2015 USTFCCCA All-Academic Team.
Kutztown will look to open 2016 the same way it did in 2015 when it heads north to Easton, Mass. for the Stonehill Invitational on Sept. 3.
