This week’s Orange Panther of the Week is junior men’s cross country runner Myles Jermyn. This season, the Orange men’s cross country team won the 3A Mideast Regional championship for the second time in three years. They finished 2nd in the 3A State Championships. Jermyn Wass a major reason for the Panthers success. He finished eight in the Mideast Regional championship at Owens Rec Park in Louisburg on October 28. At the State Championship meet in Kernersville, Jermyn finished 27th to help the Panthers finish with 93 points, second only to Croatan. Jermyn finished second in the Central Conference championship meet at Lake Cammma Course in Burlington on October 18 with a time of 17:37.41. He finished second to his teammate Gabriel Schmid, who won the 3A State Championship. Jermyn’s runner-up finish helped Orange win the Central Conference championship for the third straight year. Last week, Jermyn started his indoor track & field season by finishing second in the 3,200 meters at the East Chapel Hill Polar Bear #2 at Dave Thaden Stadium. He has already qualified for the state championships in the 3,200 meters with a time of 9:56.35. Jermyn’s father, Kevin, is the head cross country coach at Elon University. Myles will have plenty to look forward to as he continues the indoor track & field season this winter.
