Athlete of the Week: Teddy Meredith (Hopewell Valley '18) Meredith, who missed significant time early in the season (Achillies injury) sets the CR on the Greystone layout, running 15:27 to capture the N2 Group 3 Title. Teddy broke the CR literally minutes after it was set in the preceding race (Chris Romero @ 15:28)
