1997 – 2019 in the record reached

The high school record: Anna Rohrer was born 24 February 1997 in Mishawaka. Running for Mishawaka High she won the Foot Locker national cross country championship twice — in 2012 in 17:25 and in 2014 in 17:13 — and was the Gatorade National Girls Cross Country Runner of the Year for 2014–15. Her IHSAA state cross country titles came in 2012 and 2014, the second in a meet-record 17:08.8. On the track she set the national high school record for 5,000 meters indoors, 16:10.79, on 13 March 2015, won the New Balance outdoor 5,000 meters in 2014 and the Brooks PR two-mile in 9:59.96. Sports Spectrum's career count credits her with six state championships and five national championships in high school, printed here as its count alongside the individually documented titles. On 8 December 2012 Mayor Dave Wood presented her a key to the city and proclaimed Anna Rohrer National Champion Day.

Notre Dame: Across the river she became the only woman in Notre Dame history with four cross country All-America finishes — sixth in 2015, third in 2016, tenth in 2017, seventeenth in 2019 (ND Insider, 23 November 2019) — with five ACC titles and eight All-America honors to her name by June 2019.

The boundary of the record: She is not an Olympian in any record reached, and her course after 2019 was not verified; both points are stated rather than filled. The settling sources are the Notre Dame record book and the professional results databases.
