Carmen Graves, Roanoke, Junior, Mid-Distance

Graves, a junior from Christiansburg, Va., picks up her second straight ODAC weekly award after a record-setting performance at the Hokie Invitational over the weekend.  Graves competed in 800-meter run and finished fourth overall and first among NCAA Division III competitors with a time of 2:12.17.  That time not only set a new ODAC seasonal-best time, but it also topped the ODAC record by nearly four seconds (previous record -- 2:15.83 by LC's Megan Wiseman in 2003).  Additionally, Graves' time is the best in all of NCAA Division III this season.
