Kramon Earns First Weekly Award of Her Career IRVINE, CA-- Long Beach State distance runner Meredith Kramon (Larkspur) was named the Big West Conference's athlete of the week following her personal-best 18:01 at San Diego State's Aztec Invitational last Saturday. Kramon enters just her third year in the sport after converting from an all-league prep soccer player in 2004 and now has top-10 marks in both distances. She ranks seventh all-time in the 5K following Saturday's performance and leads the pack compared to other 49er distance runners all-time in the 6K with a mark of 21:13.9. Last year Kramon was named All-Big West last year, one of two 49ers who earned all-conference who return for their senior seasons. The Beach are off this Saturday, before heading to the Stanford Invitational next weekend. |
