TERRE HAUTE, Ind. – Three Grinnell College cross country runners will look to end the season on a strong note when they compete in the NCAA Division III National Championships.

Frank Canady '14 will compete in the 8-kilometer men's race at 11 a.m. Eastern time, while Sarah Burnell '14 and Stephanie Rouse '13 are set to run the women's 6-kilometer event at noon.

Canady was eighth at last Saturday's Central Region meet hosted by St. Olaf College, while Burnell and Rouse advanced by placing 10th and 19th, respectively, in the women's event.

Canady and Burnell are first-time national qualifiers, while Rouse competed last year. She placed 149th in the event.
