BHS grad heads to DIII track and field nationals for 4th time
Hannah Chappell-Dick, a senior at Eastern Mennonite University, has qualified for the NCAA Division III track and field national meet for the fourth time.
Grinnell College (Iowa) hosts this year's national meet, March 11 and 12.
With her qualification, Chappell-Dick gets a chance to repeat as an All-American in the mile. Her best time this season of 4:59.10 put her ninth in the 17-woman field. Last year the three-time All-American was fourth heading into the national meet before running a 4:56.81 in the finals to take the silver medal.
The preliminaries of the mile are Friday at 1:45 p.m. The top three runners from each of the two heats earn a spot in finals, as well as the next four fastest times for a field of 10. The finals are Saturday at 1:40 p.m.
Chappell-Dick went to nationals in the outdoor 800m in 2014 before placing third in the outdoor 1500m last year. She also went the national cross country meet as a sophomore and senior.
