Theo Beyer (Winters Mill) is our Athlete of the Week. A freshman runner on the track and field team, at the first collegiate meet of his athletic career and in his first attempt at the 5,000 meter run, he broke an existing school record and scored with a sixth place finish. His time of 19:05 bested the previous record of 21:10.

"There is no workout in which Theo doesn't give 110%," noted Coach Justin Metzger. "Whether we are in the Fitness Center lifting, on campus tackling hills, or doing intervals at the track, Theo always puts forth his best effort."

"I am excited that Theo's hard work is already paying off with such a strong performance at our first meet. His commitment to get the most out of every practice translates to him being well-prepared, physically and mentally, for competition. Coach Metzger and I look forward to seeing what else he accomplishes this season," remarked Coach Amanda Milewski.
