Burrichter finished in fifth place overall at the Highlander Short Course Invitational on Thursday. Burrichter ran a time of 15:14.2 over the 4,000-meter course, which was the fastest time by any Empire 8 runner during the week over that distance and was the fastest 4,000-meter time by a Houghton women's cross country runner since joining the NCAA Division III ranks in 2012. It is her third straight top-six finish dating back to last season.
