DALLAS - The conference office has announced Tuesday afternoon that graduate student Joice Jebor was named as Conference USA XC Co-Female Athlete of the Week. This is Jebor's first weekly honor from the conference office.
This past weekend in Tuscaloosa, Joice led the Blue Raiders to a third-place finish ahead of nationally ranked #24 Florida State and behind two SEC schools in #6 Alabama and Auburn. Her time of 21:08.8 was a season-best for the Eldoret, Kenya native, and gave her 19th place in a field of 180 runners.
Jebor is sharing this week's honor with FIU's Andrea Louzidou who finished right alongside her at the Crimson Classic meet.
