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.
