Brad Krell Named Centennial Conference Athlete of the Week
The Cherry Hill East grad is making his mark on the track as a freshman.
It didn't take Brad Krell long to shine on the collegiate stage.
Krell, a Cherry Hill East grad and freshman at Division III Franklin & Marshall, was named Centennial Conference Athlete of the Week last week, after winning gold in the 500 meters in 1:11.38 at the Kutztown Invitational.
The honor is the first of the indoor season for Krell, who piled up awards in his high school career as part of East's relay team, which won back-to-back-to-back 4x400 titles at the Penn Relays and set school records in the 4x200, 4x400, 800 medley and 1600 medley relays.
