SALISBURY, N.C. – Women's cross country senior Hannah Caudill and men's soccer sophomore goalkeeper Héctor Vara earn October 27th Catawba Athletics Budd Group Athlete of the Week honors.
Caudill paced Catawba to a second-place team finish at the UAH Chargers XC Invitational in a competitive 38-team field while finishing ahead of two top-25 nationally ranked opponents. The senior secured an eighth-place individual finish with a personal-best time of 21:04.3 in the 6,000-meter race, beating out 365 competitors on Saturday morning.
Vara delivered a shutout and saved 10 shots across two impressive victories. On Wednesday, the sophomore smothered five attempts from Lincoln Memorial in a 2-1 comeback road win. The goalkeeper added five more saves, shutting out Carson-Newman 3-0 on Saturday as the Catawba men's soccer team remained unbeaten and continued its best regular season in program history.
