The Oregon State duo of Grace Fetherstonhaugh and Kaylee Mitchell has picked up yet another award with both earning second-team All-Pac-12 honors.
The awards are based on placing at the Pac-12 Championships, held last Friday in Riverside, Calif. Fetherstonhaugh placed ninth and Mitchell finished in 12th to lead the ten Beavers who ran. As a team, Oregon State finished sixth with the second-lowest point total in school history.
The Pac-12 meet continued a strong run of cross country performances dating back to September when Mitchell placed fourth and Fetherstonhaugh 14th at the Joe Piane Invitational in South Bend, Ind. The duo repeated that performance, with the exact same placing, in October at the prestigious Nuttycombe Invitational in Madison, Wisc.
Mitchell and Fetherstonhaugh will look to lead the Beavs to another strong performance at the NCAA West Regional meet on Friday, Nov. 11 at Chamber’s Bay in University Place, Wash.
