Mathis Earns Second GLVC Title; Wins 1500-Meter Run

 
Addie Mathis won her second conference championship in her final season of competition, taking the crown in the women’s 1500-meter run, May 3, at the Great Lakes Valley Conference Outdoor Track & Field Championships.
 
Mathis, who previously won the mile run at the GLVC Indoor meet in February, outkicked four Lewis Flyers to the finish line to win the 1500. Mathis was in second place when the bell lap began and ran 1:10.45 in the final 400 meters to close with a 4:36.43, winning by four-tenths of a second over Lewis’ Sarah May. Freshman Sarah Williams also reached the finals and ran 4:57.39 to finish 11th.
