PEORIA, ILL. -- Drake senior Ashley Anklam (Bloomington, Minn.) defended her individual title at the Bradley Classic Women's Cross Country meet Friday afternoon in a time of 21 minutes 42 seconds.

Anklam, who was runner-up in the 2005 Missouri Valley Conference Championships, outclassed the field of 127 runners. Anklam set a course record of 20:57 to win the 2005 Bradley Classic.

She led the Bulldogs to a fifth-place finish in the 13-team field. Southern Illinois won the meet with 36 points followed by Windsor 113; Illinois State 123; Saint Louis 124 and Drake 146.

"Ashley (Anklam) controlled the entire race," said Drake cross country coach Dan Hostager. "She ran well despite the strong winds. We're gearing up for the MVC Championships, so the effort by our team helped our confidence."
