ATHLETE OF THE WEEK - RYAN BEABOUT

Ryan earns top honors this week with his outstanding performance at the Dover Tornado Relays (which was appropriately named with the tornado like weather the atheletes had to suffer through). Beabout didn't let 100 mph winds ruin his day as he ran 4:20 for the 1600m and 1:59 for the 800m to complete one of the best single day doubles in the state so far this year. Ryan is doing his best to stay one step ahead of the in-state competition as every time runners like Bias, Cole, and Levi start to close in on his times, he takes another step up with his racing. Along with those season best times, he's also nailed a couple of great 3200m (including a great showdown with Levi) already this year. After his solo effort of 9:18 it looks like the state record could be in trouble this year. Beabout's been the gold standard in excellence for the past few years in the state of WV, and he's set the bar high for all the runners around him. His results from the past couple of years shows what hard work and a dedicated attitude can do. We wish him the best of luck in the upcoming few weeks as things start to heat up on the track.
