WINONA, Minn. — On the track, Anna Swanson (Osceola, Wis.) made her second straight appearance in the NCAA Division III Outdoor National Championships to close out the 2022 season in May.
 
And in late June, Swanson was once again in the national spotlight, earning All-Region honors by the United States Track and Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) following the conclusion of the regular season.

The WIAC finished a distant second with 160, followed by the NEWMAC with 141 and the UAA with 140.
