Catherine Kluchinski led St. Lawrence to a 1-2-3 finish in the 3,000-meter steeplechase, and Megan Kellogg posted an All-Atlantic Regional Track and Field Conference Championship qualifying time in the 10,000 to lead the Saints' women's track and field team at the Cortland Classic at SUNY Cortland on Saturday.

Kluchinski finished cruised to a win in 12 minutes, 3.48 seconds, with Ashley Leta (12:37.22) and Lindsay Howe (12:58.52) finishing second and third, respectively.

Kellogg qualified for regionals with a time of 38:54.70 in the 10K in her first intercollegiate attempt at the distance. SUNY Geneseo's Genny Corcoran won the race in 37:48.29.
