NEWPORT NEWS, Va. – Former women's cross country and track and field standout Caroline Yarbrough '19 added another accolade to her long list of honors, earning the Atlantic 10 Scholar Athlete of the Year.
Yarbrough received her degree in art history in May, officially capping a dominant four-year career at Davidson both on the trails and track and in the classroom. She was chosen from a pool of 12 nominees from seven different A-10 institutions.
As good as Yarbrough was on the trails, she was equally as dominant in the classroom. A member of the Phi Beta Kappa, Phi Alpha Theta and Omicron Delta Kappa National Honor Societies, Yarbrough also earned a Lester Scholarship from Cambridge University.
Yarbrough was the Atlantic 10's nominee for the NCAA Woman of the Year, a seven-time Atlantic 10 All-Academic Team selection and two-time Google Cloud Academic All-District honoree.
The Greensboro, N.C., was a 16-time All-Conference team member and earned a staggering 123 points in A-10 Championship meets between indoor and outdoor.
