Washington University sophomore Michael Burnstein finished in 16th place to lead the team to a third-place finish at the 2009 NCAA Division III Midwest Region Championships. He completed the 8,000-meter race with a time of 24:53. The unranked Bears tallied 118 team points to defeat six teams currently ranked in the U.S. Track and Field and Cross Country Coaches Association Top-35 poll, including three teams ranked in the top-15.
