BOSTON -- Junior Amy Wilfert (Westborough, MA) continued her outstanding cross country season by finishing 11th at the 2009 New England Intercollegiate Amateur Athletic Association (NEIAAA) Cross Country Championship held at Franklin Park in Boston on Saturday.

Wilfert ran 18:18 and was the second Division III finisher at the race, behind only MIT's Jacqui Wentz (18:06 for third place). Narrowly edged out of the top 10 this year, Wilfert was 21st in the race last season. This year she led the Tufts team to a 22nd place finish overall out of 49 teams. The top five Jumbo finishes added up to 680 overall.

Sophomore Bryn Kass (Santa Barbara, CA) continued to firmly establish herself as the team's #2, finishing 115th overall in 19:37. The third Jumbo finisher on Saturday was sophomore Anya Price (Natick, MA), whose 20:05 time was 171st.

The fourth and fifth scorers for Tufts were junior Jen Yih (Palo Alto, CA) and sophomore Kelsey Picciuto (Cornwall, NY) with 20:14 (176th) and 20:42 (207th) times, respectively.
