He is an 11-time All-American and holds program records in the indoor mile run and outdoor 1,500-meter run.
Among the 48 student-athletes selected to the CoSIDA Academic All-America® Division III Track & Field/Cross Country mens teams, eight carry a 4.0 grade-point average. The 16 members of the men’s track & field/cross country first team carry an average GPA of 3.86.
