Carson Carroll, the usual photographer of West Of’s Athlete of the Week, is now this week’s Athlete of the Week. To stay in shape for soccer, Carroll joined the Cross Country team, unknowingly becoming the 7th fastest girl to run cross country in WAHS history. In the last cross country region meet on Oct. 22, Carroll ran 3.2 miles in 22 minutes and 17 seconds.
Despite recording the 7th fastest time in West Ashley’s history, Carroll surprisingly “hates running, but loves the feeling of accomplishment and the rush of endorphins after finishing a race.”
“She’s been the top girls cross country runner this season and will be missed next year,” says cross country head coach Brian Brennan.
