Women's Cross Country and Cheer's Sadie Lane continues to earn accolades this year. Lane was chosen to represent the entire state of Tennessee as Southern States Correctional Associations Kenneth Law Scholarship award winner in a national competition.

Lane competed against applicants from colleges all across the state of Tennessee. Now that she has been named the winner in the state, she, along with 11 other students across the country, will look to receive a $10,000 scholarship.

"It is an honor to receive this scholarship because I have worked diligently and passionately at Cleveland State to pursue my career in Criminal Justice," said Lane.

Lane's hard work has not gone unnoticed on campus. "Sadie's efforts and hard work have paid off for her and her family," said Criminal Justice Program Director Marcus Easley. "She has shown an amazing light on Cleveland State, its faculty and staff and our criminal justice program."

Lane is set to attend Missouri Valley College in Marshall, Mo. in the fall and will compete in Women's Cross Country, Women's Track and Field, and Competitive Cheer for the Vikings. Join us in congratulating Sadie! We wish her the best of luck going forward in the competition and in her college education.
