Graduate student team wins the spring ChE 5k

The graduate student team won the spring ChE 5k at Circleville Park on Saturday, besting the faculty/staff, the senior undergraduate, and the sophomore-junior undergraduate teams. Cross country scoring was used, with the top seven runners on each team counting towards the finals results.

A total of 17 graduate students ran the ChE 5k, which was run in conjunction with the Bunny Hop 5k hosted by the State College National Honor Society. The money raised from the run supported the Four Diamonds Fund, an organization that funds pediatric cancer research.

This was the first team win for the graduate students in the three ChE 5k races. A combined undergraduate team won the inaugural race in spring 2016 at the Faith Centre 5k in Bellefonte and the sophomore-junior undergrad team won the fall 2016 race at the Thon 5k.
