Now in its 75th year, the Ohio Valley Conference continues to build on the success that has made it the nation's eighth-oldest NCAA Division I conference. Over those 75 years the League has inspired student-athletes to realize their academic aspirations, maximize their athletics potential, and cultivate their leadership skills to prepare them for life beyond their collegiate experience.
As part of a partnership with
Digital Scoreboards, each week through the the academic year, we will honor an OVC student-athlete who has excelled in the classroom, in addition to earning accolades on the playing surface.
This week's honoree is Southeast Missouri senior distance runner
Aaron Modrow. Last year he was named to the OVC Commissioner's Honor Roll for his work in the classroom. Last year he competed in six cross country meets as well as the indoor and outdoor track seasons. He opened the 2022 season by finishing seventh at the Redhawks Invitational last weekend.
