Led by first-time SCAC Runner of the Year Alison Mueller-Hickler, the No. 20-ranked Colorado College women's cross country team won its fifth consecutive Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference team title Saturday morning in Prairie View, Texas.
 
The Tigers captured the top five spots in the race and placed 10 runners on the all-conference team.
 
Colorado College finished with a perfect score of 15 points for the third time in the last four years, followed by Texas Lutheran with 99 and the University of the Ozarks with 101. CC is the first team to win five straight team titles since DePauw won seven from 2003-09.
 
Mueller-Hickler, a senior from Katy, Texas, won the 6K race in a time of 22:11.18, 16 seconds ahead of runner-up and junior teammate Charlie Flint, who covered the course in 22:27.45.
 
Seniors Abby Goodfried finished third in 22:39.63 and freshman Sadie Honig in fourth (22:53.45), capturing Newcomer of the Year honors. Senior Brooktie Frogge placed fifth in 22:53.99 to close out the scoring for the Tigers.
 
Senior Liz White (8^th/23:04.46), freshman Ellie Ottem (11^th/23:28.43), senior Sky Theodosopoulos (12^th/23:31.90), junior Mary Cate Kiser (13^th/23:35.50) and sophomore Tessa Olsen (14^th/23:38.89) also earned all-SCAC honors.
 
"The goal today was to work as a team," head coach Alex Nichols said. "They did a great job supporting each other and pulling their teammates along to great races across the board. It's exciting to get another perfect score at the conference meet. We're looking forward to taking that momentum to regionals."
 
Following the Tigers hosting an intrasquad '5K Under The Lights' on Thursday, Nov. 6, they will compete at the NCAA Division III West Regional Meet on Saturday, Nov. 15, in Claremont, Calif.
