LOUISVILLE, Ky. | The 2014 NCAA Nationals were held on Saturday morning at E.P. Tom Sawyer Park, and the University of Alabama in Huntsville women's cross country team representatives Michelle Kruse and Kailey Williams finished in the top 120 in the field of 249 runners.
 
Williams finished the highest of the two UAH runners at 101st as the sophomore clocked in at 22:50.4, compared to Kruse's 120th-place standing with a time of 23:05.2. Williams, a Dunwoody, Georgia native, bests her freshman performance when she finished in 191st with a time of 23:39.0.
 
Kruse also improved on her performance from 2013, when she posted a time of 23:30.2 to finish 191st. Last season, UAH had only one runner finish in the top 120.
 
The pair caps off an exceptional 2014 campaign that saw top-6 times in each competition for Williams, while Kruse came in the top 10 in every UAH race. Williams earned two GSC Runner of the Week awards this season, with Kruse earning one weekly conference honor.
