Salisbury, NC - The Winston-Salem State University women's cross-country team captured two of the top three finishers on Saturday afternoon in Salisbury, NC and earned a CIAA league victory in the process as two-sport star athletes Janessa Webb (So./Anchorage, AK) and Janet Robinson (Jr./Durham, NC) finished first and third respectively and paced the Lady Rams to a victory.
Webb, a sophomore from Anchorage, AK who was also a First-Team All-CIAA selection in volleyball last season, turned in the best time of the afternoon as she completed the three-mile course in 22:13, a full 19 seconds faster than her next closest competitor, Tiana Pope.
She was not the only Lady Ram to turn in an impressive performance on Saturday as Janet Robinson crossed the finish line only one minute and 25 seconds later to capture the third-place finish.
The remainder of the Lady Rams finished fifth, sixth and tenth to round out the afternoon's victory.
WSSU returns to action on October 18th, 2004 when they travel to Salisbury, NC to compete against the Livingstone College Lady Blue Bears to close out the regular season before venturing to Cary, NC to compete in the CIAA cross-country championships on October 21st, 2004.
