After breaking the conference 10K record in her outdoor season debut at the Littlefield Texas Relays, Thompson nearly did the same with the 5K distance while competing at the Flames Invitational hosted by Lee University.
Thompson collected track honors for the second time in three opportunities with a new school record and the second-fastest time registered in conference history.
She finished runner-up individually with a provisional time of 16:32.92, which currently ranks sixth in Division II this spring.
Historically, she only trails former Walsh standout Sarah Berger at the top of the Great Midwest records from a 16:18.85 set in 2018.
