2-Time Foot Locker Champ Claudia Lane Commits To Dartmouth


Between rehabbing from a lingering IT band injury and taking official visits to programs across the country, Malibu (CA) High School senior Claudia Lane has led a busy schedule this fall. 

But the two-time defending Foot Locker Champion made an important decision on Saturday, announcing her commitment to Ivy League Dartmouth College on Instagram.

Lane also visited Duke University and the University of California, Berkeley. 

Lane has raced just once this cross country season, but when healthy the Californian is in elite company at the 1600m, 3200m and 5K distances. Last season, she broke a 5K course record at Woodwark Park in Fresno (16:30.30) at the CIF Championships and set a new Mt. SAC course record for 3-miles at 15:49.00. 

She's captured two straight CIF Division 4 Championships, two straight Foot Locker West titles and two more national wins. She hasn't lost in a cross country race since 2016 when she finished second at Woodbridge. 

On the track, Lane PRs of 2:17.30 in the 800m, 4:51.27 in the 1600m and 9:57.52 for 3200m. She's also posted a 1-mile best of 4:47.73 and a 2-mile time of 10:01.18. As a sophomore, she also won a state title in the 3200m.
