Westlake, Ohio – Oberlin College women's track athletes Abigail Bellows and Sarah Voit were named North Coast Athletic Conference Athletes of the Week, announced Monday afternoon by the conference office.
 
Bellows was named the mid-distance/distance athlete of the week for a strong performance in the 3,000-meter event at the Sixth Annual Spartan Holiday Classic. They completed the race in 11:05.72, leading Oberlin's top-3 finishers in the event. After a track size conversion, the time comes out to 11:00.07 and currently ranks 33^rd in the country and tops in the NCAC.
