Pueblo, CO (Northland's NewsCenter) --- UMD senior distance runner Morgan Place wrapped up a very prolific career on Thursday night, finishing in 12th place of the 10,000-meter run at the Division II NCAA outdoor track and field championships.
Place finished the race in 37:26.31, falling four places short an eighth place finish that would have earned her a school-record sixth All-American track and field honor.
