High School Men
-THOMAS AWAD, Senior, Chaminade: A class-setting pace of 9:16.43 in the 3200m this weekend at St. Anthony's Invitational gets Awad the nod over Section V runner Mike Anvelt. Awad has been a "watch out for this guy" athlete since the beginning of the season, and while he's going to have to keep dropping those times to achieve a state title, he is a runner any college coach would be fortunate to have. He leads Chaminade's combined distance team this year.
High School Women
-MARY CAIN, Sophomore, Bronxville: I know, I know--she was Runner of the Week last week. But you just can't make this stuff up: Cain barely missed the Olympic "B" standard of 4:17.00 in the 1500m, running a 4:17.03. That makes her the second fastest high-school sophomore ever to run the 1500m. Hey, when you break records, you remain our Runner of the Week for an unprecedented second week in a row.
College Men
-LEE BERUBE, Senior, SUNY Geneseo: It was a record-setting weekend for Berube at the 2012 SUNYAC Championships at SUNY Oneonta. Berube broke the SUNYAC meet record with a blistering 14:43.44 in the 5000m, garnering another championship for his impressive resume. For good measure, he added a 10000m performance in 32:08.05, good enough for 3rd. Impressive showing for Berube, helping lead the way at the "SUNY Geneseo Show"--aka the SUNYAC--this weekend.
College Women
-SARAH PAGANO, Sophomore, Syracuse University: Your 2012 10,000m Big East Champion! Sarah far outpaced the field in Tampa this weekend and hopes to take that success into regional finals. A national force to be reckoned with, Sarah leads a powerful Syracuse University distance squad with its eyes set on American dominance.
