Graceland University's Dillon Grover Named Men's Cross Country Runner of the Week

Graceland University Men's Cross Country's Dillon Grover was named the Heart of America Athletic Conference (Heart) Men's Cross Country Runner of the Week Monday, Oct. 26.

Grover has consistently improved throughout the year and has been one of the Heart's top runners all season. This weekend tabbed Grover's third top-ten finish of the fall. He placed fifth to open the season at the Viking Invitiational, won the Yellowjacket Invite, then earned third last week ahead of this recognition.

Grover set a personal record at 25:30.36 this weekend and posted the fastest time in the Heart this fall. He helped the Graceland men's team to a fourth-place finish out of the nine competing teams in the Mustang XC Jamboree.

Each week, award winners are nominated by members of the Heart and selected by a voting panel of member institution Sports Information Directors.
