Boren Garners Crossroads Honor
WINONA LAKE – Grace track star Jo Boren was named the Crossroads League outdoor Athlete of the Week.
Boren claimed two first-place finishes at the Spartan Invitational on Friday at Manchester University. She won the 400-meter race in 59.28 seconds and teamed up with Paige Kindig, Mya Brown and Micah Pollard to win the 4×100 in 50.05.
She unofficially won a third race at the meet (200m), but a timing system error did not record the result.
Boren marks the fourth weekly honor won by Grace’s track and field team from the Crossroads League, including two from Brown and another from Nathan Lane. Boren was also the NCCAA National Athlete of the Week on Feb. 10 during the indoor season.
