Rebecca Larson of Team Florida won the individual Division I womans national collegiate title this past weekend in Lawrence, Kansas. Larson placed second in the road race and won the criterium earning her 263 points which put her into a tie with Penn State's Sarah Uhl. According to the rules, ties are first broken by the number of first-place finishes, but since Uhl and Larson each had one (Uhl placed first in the road race), officials went to the second tie-breaker – the number of second-place finishes by each rider – giving the overall title to Larson.
