DEERFIELD, IL - Kaylee Kanocz and Luke Bautch sign with TIU.

Kaylee Kanocz and Luke Bautch both signed letters of intent to join the TIU Cross Country team on Thursday, June 14 after a run with coach Tingley at UW-Parkside's Wayne E. Dannehl National Cross Country Course. Kaylee is transferring to TIU from Northwest Florida State College in Niceville, FL. She has not run cross country since middle school but has recently run some half marathons. The mileage Kaylee has put in, combined with upcoming speedwork throughout the summer and fall should allow her to make positive contributions on the course for the lady Trojans. She resides in Pleasant Prairie, WI and plans to study Education at TIU.

 Luke Bautch, a sophomore Business major at TIU, has never been on a cross country team but brings a willing spirit and natural athletic ability to the TIU men's team. He has shown a great deal of enthusiasm to train over the summer and is excited to run fast and help the team in its races during the fall. Luke is from West Allis, WI.
