Virginia cross country runner Will Christian was named the ACC Runner of the Week after winning the Lou Onesty Invitational last weekend.

Christian ran a 24:28.90 to beat out Duke's All-ACC runner Michael Hatch by seven seconds in the eight-kilometer course.

The junior from Great Mills, Md. previously won the same Invitational in his debut as a freshman in 2001.

It is the first time Christian has received ACC Runner of the Week honors. It is also the first such honor awarded a Cavalier this season.
