One of the most decorated runners in school history, senior Jake Hoffert of the Bradley cross country and track & field programs was honored as Varsity Club Most Outstanding Male Athlete for the 2019-20 academic year.
Hoffert has led the Bradley cross country program during one of the most successful runs in Missouri Valley Conference history as the senior has helped guide the Braves to five-straight team championships, tying the MVC record. On an individual level, Hoffert crossed the finish line in first place at the conference meet in 2019, becoming the first Brave in school history to win two individual crowns after also claiming the 2017 title.
