Athlete of the Week - Clara Grandt

The AotW for Nov. 9th - 15th is Clara Grandt. Clara earns her 8th (!) AotW via her 8th place performance at Regionals over the weekend. Ms. Grandt led the Mountaineers to a third place finish, which allowed them into nationals on at-large points. The Mid-Atlantic region was the hardest women's region in the nation (five teams qualified) and Clara made a fine showing. Other performances of note were Marie-Louise (13th), Keri Bland (18th), Kate Harrison (19th) and Ahna Lews (24th) in the girl's race, and Matt Schiffbauer (25th) in the guy's race. Nice job everyone, now it's on to nationals for WVU girls...
