- Madison, WI -
The capital of Wisconsin is certainly a long way from Macon, Georgia, but that's where junior Elizabeth Lee will be representing Mercer Cycling for the 2010 U.S. Collegiate Nationals. Lee, a qualifier in the 'A' category out of the SECCC conference, will race May 8th and 9th in the orange and black. She was the only female individual in the D2 level of the SECCC to get appointed to the race by conference director Nathan Haslick.
"We're very excited for Elizabeth," commented team director Andrew Lockwood. "She's put a ton of work in over the past few years and this seems to only be the culmination of that experience."
This season, Lee has garnerned 11 Top-10 finishes, 5 Top-5 finishes, and a win at the Flat Rock Mountain Bike Race earlier in April. Racing for Mercer Cycling and in the offseason for Kudzu.com/Fulton Flyers Cycling Club, Lee is the first Mercer cyclist to represent the team on a national level.
