Senior Lorena Rangel Batres will close out her cross-country career with LSU on Saturday as she is fresh off of a stellar performance at the NCAA South Central Regional Championships in Bryan-College Station, Texas.
At the South Central regional, Rangel Batres became the fourth woman in LSU history to punch her ticket to the NCAA Championships. She finished sixth overall as an individual at the regional meet with a time of 19:32.3. Her new personal-best time shaved almost two seconds off her previous best set at the SEC Championships weeks prior. Her sixth-place finish tied for the second-highest in LSU history with Ella Chesnut, who accomplished this feat last season.
Rangel Batres earned her third All-Region honor from USTFCCCA with her to-25 finish at the regional meet. She had previously accomplished this in 2021 and 2022.
The San Luis Potosí, Mexico, native will be looking to reach a new best for the program as she competes in the national title race. Charlotte Mayock holds the best finish by a Tiger in LSU women’s history with 62nd in 1996. Last season Ella Chesnut finished 196th as a sophomore.
