GREENWOOD, Ind. – Trevecca Nazarene sophomore Caroline Hampton was named the final Great Midwest Athletic Conference Women’s Cross Country Athlete of the Week for the fall on Monday.
 
Hampton became the first woman in conference history to officially represent the G-MAC at cross country nationals coming up later this month.
 
Hampton clocked in 15th out of 220 runners on the women's side in 21:31.22 at the NCAA DII Midwest Regional in Evansville, Ind., on Saturday.
 
The two-time G-MAC champ, 2014 conference freshman of the year and 2014 all-region pick is one of three women's individual qualifiers to make to nationals.
 
She will be headed to nationals along with Sarah Campbell (Malone) and Flannery Musk (Bellarmine).
 
She was also a USTFCCCA All-Midwest Region Team selection for the second straight year as announced on Monday.
 
Joining Hampton from the G-MAC on the all-region team was Cedarville's Carsyn Koch, who finished 25th overall.
 
Hampton was also close to shattering her own all-time G-MAC 6K record of 21:29.11 set ironically at last year's DII Midwest Regional.
 
Her accomplished career continues at the NCAA DII Championships on Nov. 21, in Joplin, Mo.
