LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Senior Emma Wells' name gained even more prominence in the Bellarmine University women's cross country program record book after Saturday's Live in Lou Classic at E.P. "Tom" Sawyer State Park.

For the fourth consecutive meet, Wells delivered an all-time top-50 performance in the 5k, on this occasion finishing in 18:26.7 in the Gold Race to own the Knights' 39th-fastest mark ever.
