Sophomore Mariah Wehling has been selected as this week’s Athlete of the Week after wrapping up an impressive cross-country season with a standout performance at the Cloverbelt Conference Championship on October 17th.
Wehling finished 10th overall in the 5K with a time of 21:07, earning All-Conference honors and closing her season on a high note. The performance also marked another major step forward, as she cut 20 seconds off her personal record in one of the biggest meets of the year as noted by Head Coach Nick Mahr.
Wehling’s All-Conference result also contributed to a solid overall showing for the Orioles, who came away from the meet with two All-Conference runners and two honorable mentions.
Wehling’s consistent growth, hard work, and commitment to the sport made her a key contributor for the Orioles this fall and a deserving choice for this week’s Athlete of the Week.
