LA CROSSE – Marshfield High School graduate Sean Harrington battled through a nagging toe injury to run a few races toward the end of the season for the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse men’s cross country team.

Harrington finished 51st at the Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference Meet on Oct. 29 as the Eagles finished second.

Harrington finished 56th at the UW-Eau Claire Blugold Open on Sept. 30, he was 59th at the Jim Drews Invitational on Oct. 15 and finished seventh at the Luther College Dual on Oct. 21. UW-La Crosse won all three meets.

Harrington was named the Max Sparger Scholar-Athlete Award for the WIAC in cross country. Only one scholar-athlete is given an award in each sport.

He also received the sportsmanship award for the Eagles at the conference meet.
