Unranked Delawarean Lydia Olivere Takes Down #14 Aislinn Devlin


Unranked Lydia Olivere of the Padua Academy in Delaware upset No. 14 ranked Aislinn Devlin in the Puma Challenge at the Carlisle Invitational. The junior distanced her senior competitor, 17:22 to 17:44, and significantly improved her course PB from last year's 18:10. Olivere placed eighth at the 2015 NXN SE Regional and looks poised to break into a qualifying spot this year -- top five finishers who are not on a qualifying team.
