Valparaiso's rarely had its best seven on the starting line this season doe to various issues, but has managed to hold its own thanks to the development of runners like freshman Tiffany Fortney, who finished seventh in Tuesday's Chesterton Sectional. "She just keeps getting better and better," coach Karen DeVries said. "Every race, I'll ask her what her goal is to make sure she's right on track, and she always is. She has that game plan going into a race." Fortney's helped pick up the slack for the likes of Lauren Bigger, who's been slowed by injuries this season. "Lauren's a solid runner," DeVries said. "She has lots of talent. We haven't really seen that talent this year, but I hope even after today she realizes, hey, I can at least help." -- Jim Peters
