NEW YORK CITY - Linn-Mar junior Stephanie Jenks placed third in the 5K run Friday at the New Balance Indoor Nationals at The Armory Track & Field Center in New York City.

Jenks was clocked in 16 minutes, 40.13 seconds.

Anna Rohrer of Mishawaka High School in Indiana won the race in 16:10.79.2. Ryen Frazier of Ravenscroft School was second in 16:12.81. There were 22 elite runners from across the country in the event.

Jenks nursed a hip injury during the winter. This was her first major competition of the track season and the latest high finish in national events. The top six finishers in Friday's race were named All-Americans.

In addition to being a top distance runner and multiple state champion, Jenks also was named a Junior Elite All-American in the triathlon for her accomplishments in 2014, which included a silver medal at the Junior Olympics in China.

Jenks plans to compete for the Linn-Mar track team this spring.
