Athlete of the Week - Clara Grandt

Live from sunny Costa Rica, it´s Athlete of the Week! We don´t have access to pictures today, so this will be a bit rough. The AotW for November 23rd to November 29th is Clara Grandt. Clara finished 14th at the NCAA Championships in Terra Huate, Indiana. Ms. Grandt capped off her final year of cross country with her best performance ever at NCAAs. She, as well as Marie Louise Asselin and Keri Bland, won an All America Award for her efforts. Best of luck to her as she moves on from collegiate cross country. Also, congrats to Coach Cleary for his 6th place team. This was the greatest three year stretch of any WVU nonrifle team in the past several decades. Take a minute and pat yourself on the back. Ok, now reload and do it again, haha...

Special tip of the cap to all those who went down to Foot Locker Nationals. Alex Dent was clearly the story coming out of the race with her 1814. Congrats to her... now, I´m off to the beach.
