Viera Hawk Named Runner of the Year for 2023
December 28, 2023 – FLORIDA TODAY has named Viera High School’s Addison Elwell as the 2023 Runner of the Year, and the cross country standout certainly earned the honor.
According to FLORIDA TODAY: “The Viera High sophomore won three meets in a row individually from the middle of October at the Cape Coast Conference meet through her regional meet on Nov. 11.”
“She won by 19 seconds at Wickham Park on Oct. 19 to claim the CCC individual girls championship. That morning, she posted her best 5,000-meter of the season, 18:04.5.”
“Elwell went on to win the District 5-4A meet hosted by Osceola High in Kissimmee, 51 seconds faster than the rest of the field. In Region 3-4A, she crossed the finish line 29 seconds before her closest competitor at Kissimmee’s Austin Tindall Park.”
“Elwell’s 18:49.3 placed her sixth in Class 4A at Tallahassee’s Apalachee Park for the FHSAA state meet, Brevard’s best girls time of the day.”
Viera congratulates Addison Elwell on this spectacular achievement. And because she potentially has two more years at VHS, we expect she’ll be in the running for many more accolades in the future.
