Macon, Ga. - For the second time this season, Campbell junior Jeremy Helf (Alliston, ONT/Athletic Training) was named Atlantic Sun Runner of the Week today by the conference office.

Last Saturday, Helf finished in a personal best 25:22.90 in the 8K Men's Collegiate Division at the Great American Cross Country race in Cary, N.C. His time was good enough for an 18th place finish and was the seventh fastest time ever recorded in an 8K cross country race by a Campbell harrier. Helf's mark is also the fastest in the league right now.

The Fighting Camels' next meet will be in Greenville, S.C. at the Furman Invitational on October 8.

Campbell hosts the 2005 Atlantic Sun Cross Country Championships on Oct. 29.

The Atlantic Sun Runner of the Week is announced every Wednesday during the 2005 cross country season.

The 11-member league headquartered in Macon, Ga., consists of Belmont, Campbell, ETSU, Florida Atlantic, Gardner-Webb, Jacksonville, Kennesaw State, Lipscomb, Mercer, North Florida and Stetson.
