Athlete of the Week - Jacob Burcham

The AotW for December 13th-19th is Jacob Burcham of Cabell Midland High School. Mr. Burcham won the Barboursville Winter Series 3miler in a time of 15:27. The sophomore wins the final AotW for 2010, which is fitting as he has been the story of the running community this year as well.

The AotW for December 6th-12th is Cody Pelliccioni of Morgantown High School. Cody ran at Foot Locker Nationals and finished 36th. He is only the fifth West Virginian to ever participate in this exclusive high school meet. The future NC State runner covered the course in sixteen minutes. Best of luck in track.

Athlete of the Week - Jacob Burcham

The AotW for November 29th - December 5th is Jacob Burcham of Cabell Midland High School. Mr. Burcham went to NXN over the weekend and finished in 16th place against some of the best HS runners the nation has to offer. Hard to believe how quickly he's moved along just in the past two years. Clearly one of the top underclassmen in the nation, he now rolls into track carrying a MUCH higher level of fitness than this time last year. All the WV State Meet/ WV HS All-Time guys distance records are on Death Row... get ready for some bombs to get dropped this spring.
