SouthCoastToday.com: "Fehskens is in the running for a pair of prestigious Northeast-10 awards"
Brandon Kurie of the New Bedford Standard Times recently caught up with Bentley cross country standout Paige Fehskens to talk about her career with the Falcons.
Is Wareham's Paige Fehskens the Northeast-10 Conference Woman of the Year? How about the NE-10 Women's Scholar-Athlete of the Year?
She's about to find out.
Fehskens, who just completed her degree at Bentley University last week and ran cross country and track for the Falcons, is the school's nominee for both conference awards, which will be announced May 26 and May 27.
"It's a shock to me," she said. "What an honor. I'm thrilled."
Fehskens ran four seasons of cross country at Bentley and two full years of track. But that's just part of her resume. She entered the final semester with a 3.87 GPA as an accountancy and liberal studies major. She appeared on the school's President's List six times.
But don't overlook her athletic career. She was Bentley's No. 1 cross country runner for three straight seasons and ranks in the top 12 all-time in two track events.
