Alabama-Huntsville freshman Blaise Binns was named this week’s Gulf South Conference Men's Cross Country Runner of the Week.
Binns celebrated his first-ever individual title in just his second collegiate race last week. UAH hosted the 8K Fleet Fee/Earl Jacoby Memorial event and the New Market, AL native made the hosts proud, finishing atop the field thanks to a final time of 26:32. Binns took the lead just past the three-mile mark, breaking from the field and finishing the final mile in just 5:12. The Chargers also took home the Team Title, finishing with 20 points.
