JENNA CHESSER – FAN VOTE

Tallulah Falls freshman phenom Jenna Chesser has the future looking bright for the Lady Indians cross country team. She has been a welcomed addition, and is proving her place as a front-runner alongside leader Lucy Alexander. Last week, Chesser finished third in a meet, clocking in at 21:21, a new personal best for her. This is Chesser’s first Runner of the Week award.

MATTHEW SCHROEDER – BLITZ PICK

Jefferson’s Matthew Schroeder has long been a force for the Dragons’ cross country program. The junior is having another solid year, and last week placed 7th among a tough field, coming in at 16:52. This is Schroeder’s first Runner of the Week award.
