Cyclone teams and athletes heading to national championships

Moraine Valley’s men’s golf and cross country teams as well as two runners from the women’s cross country team are heading to national championships after a stellar fall season.

For the first time in its 25-year history, the golf team is heading to the NJCAA golf championship this May after placing second in the Region IV Tournament on October 11.

The Cyclones came in second place behind Black Hawk College at the 15-team tournament at PrairieView Golf Club in Byron, Illinois. The top two teams advanced to the championship scheduled May 19 at Goose Pond Colony Golf Course in Scottsboro, Alabama. Moraine has had individual golfers qualify for the tournament, but this is the first time the entire team has earned the trip.

By taking second place in the 2008 National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) Region IV, Division I Championship on October 25 at Sauk Valley College, the men’s cross country team will compete in the national championship. This is the third time the men’s team advanced to the national race.

The women’s team ended their season October 25 with a fourth-place finish at the NJCAA Region IV Division I championship, but two runners advanced to the national meet. Lauren Burke (Lockport) finished in sixth-place and Monica Gelezauskas (Lockport) placed 13th, both earning a trip to the national competition.

The men’s team, Burke and Gelezauskas are preparing to compete in the NJCAA championship November 8 in Spartanburg, South Carolina.
