Troy's Keller Signs with SIUE Track and Cross Country

EDWARDSVILLE – Ana Keller, of Troy, Illinois, has signed a National Letter of Intent to join the SIUE cross country and track and field teams.

SIUE Assistant Coach Josh Wolfe welcomed Keller to the program.

"After years of being a soccer player, Ana has transitioned to cross country and track for the first time as a senior," said Wolfe. "She immediately established herself as one of the top runners on her team, which would eventually go on to qualify for state. After a top 10 finish at her conference meet and a top 15 finish at her regional meet, we knew she was one of the best runners in our area."

Keller helped Triad High School to a spot in the IHSA state championships, finishing the three-mile state meet in 20 minutes, 06.03. Her personal best for the season at three miles was 19:13.9 at the Freeburg Invitational.

"Ana has other runners in her family and brings the type of pedigree that we're looking for, one that combines high upside and a low running age to give her a high floor and even higher ceiling," said Wolfe. "We also think she's going to be tremendous teammate and bring a competitiveness to our group that will help push us forward. We are excited about adding Ana to this young women's team."

She is the daughter of Matthew and Jennifer Keller.
