West Alabama senior Polina Babkina was tabbed the Gulf South Conference Women's Cross Country Runner of the Week for the second consecutive week.
For the second week in a row, Babkina broke the school record with a time of 18:15.87 in the women's 5K run at the Jacksonville State University Foothills Invitational. Her time also earned her a second-place finish behind only the host school's Giselle Slotboom. Competing against athletes from the Division I and Division II ranks, she was one of two UWA runners to finish in the top-20, helping the team to a No. 3 overall finish.
