KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Brayden Clews-Proctor has been named the MIAA co-Men’s Cross Country Athlete of the Week, as announced by the league office Tuesday afternoon. The freshman helped the Bearcats earn a second place finish in Saturday’s Lewis Conference Crossover in Romeoville, Ill. He shares the honor with Southwest Baptist’s Drew Cargill.

The Canberra, Australia native earned a 14th place finish after completing the eight-kilometer course in a season-best 25:12.11. Clews-Proctor has consistently been one of the the top-five scorers for the Bearcats this season.

Clews-Proctor is the second Bearcat to earn these honors after Nolan Zimmer received the same award following his week one victory at the 2015 Bearcat Open on Sept. 4.

Northwest, the fourth-ranked men’s team in the Central Region, will return to the starting line in two weeks when it heads to Hays, Kan. for the MIAA Championships on Saturday, Oct. 24.
