Women's Cross Country Lauren McNeil takes home Athlete of the Week honours powered by Meal Prep for You, for the week ending in October 13th.
In her first race for the UBCO Heat in 3 years, Lauren McNeil picked up right where she left off winning the Stewart Cup on Saturday. The Canada West and U SPORTS silver medalist back in 2021, McNeil won her third race as a member of the Heat, after capturing first place in two meets three years ago. The Master’s of Sustainability student outpaced the second place finisher, Constance Nankivell from Trinity Western, by one minute and 16 seconds, an excellent result heading into the Canada West Championships in two weeks’ time.
This is the first time this season and in her career that McNeil has been named Athlete of the Week.
