Athlete of the Week - Zach Tennant

The AotW for June 22nd-28th is Zach Tennant of North Marion High School. Zach's final race of the year was at Nike Outdoor Nationals and he ran 4:19.09. He was at the head of the chase pack with 225m to go, but faded and lost a lot of time in the final half of the lap. This was his final race of the summer, so he'll be off the front page for quite a while. Congrats to Zach for a fantastic senior season, it's always great to see kids seeking out tough post-season competition.

Special mention to Jacob Burcham, he ran 4:43 at a meet down in Cabell Midland last weekend. After this weekend (USATFs), we'll be into the road racing season for the majority of the summer. Best of luck to everyone out there and I'm sure we'll see some new faces on AotW.
