Cross country sophomore Jeremy Meadows was awarded Big 12 Runner of the Week this week after taking home his first win as a Baylor Bear at the Bear Twilight Invitational on Aug. 31.
After placing seventh in the same race last year, Meadows accredited his victory to his great summer.
“I’ve had an entire freshman year worth of training and getting used to how we do practices and workouts here,” Meadows said. “Just putting in base mileage has had a big impact on my fitness level and how I am able to race this year, but I think one of the biggest parts is that I just had a really great summer with no injuries and high mileage.
