NEW ORLEANS – Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns cross country runner Damian O'Boyle picked up his first honor of the 2020 season on Thursday when he was named the Sun Belt Conference Men's Runner of the Week, the league office announced.
O'Boyle, a native of Galway, Ireland, earned his first victory in a Ragin' Cajuns uniform after claiming the 4-mile run at the ULM Warhawk Invitational last Friday. He covered the course in 20:33 to win the individual title by six seconds over Louisiana Tech's Conner Killian.
