Cunningham paces Norse, Women’s Triathlon Finishes Sixth at Duquesne Cup

BEAVER FALLS, Pa. – Northern Kentucky University Norse women's triathlon opened its 2026 campaign on Thursday, racing at the Duquesne Cup at Brady's Run Park in Beaver Falls, Pa. The Norse were one of six teams competing, going up against Arizona, Delaware State, Duquesne, Navy, and La Salle. Out of the 57 competitors, Charlotte Cunningham led the way with a 40th-place finish for the Norse, but NKU finished last out of the group of teams. 

The race consisted of a 750-meter swim, an 11.8-mile bike, and a 5-kilometer run. Cunningham paced the Norse in all three events, with a time of 12:20.63 in the swim, a 37-flat in the bike, and finished off the race with a 22:57 5K for a total time of 1:13:33. Also competing for the Norse were Tia Weiss (50th), Maggie Wilson (51st), Fallon Bright (53rd), and Maddux Bigam (54th). Weiss finished with a time of 1:21:47 overall, and posted the second-fastest times in all three individual events as well (13:20 swim, 41:47 bike, 24:12.42 run). 

Up next, the Norse head down to Johnson City, Tennessee for the ETSU Buc Cup on September 4.
