Audrey MacLean of the #25 Middlebury women's cross country team has earned the NESCAC Runner of the Week honor. The league's accolade is her first this season and fifth in a Panther uniform.
 
HIGHLIGHTS

• That clocking lowered her season-best 6K mark by over 97 seconds.
• MacLean has secured a top-three finish in every race this season, including third-place clockings at the Aldrich Invitational and the Silloway Maple Syrup Challenge.
• She has helped Middlebury win the team title in each of the team's first three invitationals this fall.

MacLean and her teammates return to competition on October 3 at the Paul Short Run hosted by Lehigh.
