GOOGLE CLOUD ACADEMIC ALL-DISTRICT TEAM
COLUMBIA, S.C.. — University of South Carolina track & field and cross country junior Allie Mueller has been named to the Google Cloud Academic All-District Team as announced by CoSIDA Tuesday afternoon.
Mueller stood out in 2017-18 as one of Carolina’s top performers in both cross country and track & field. In the fall, Mueller was Carolina’s top finisher at the Joe Piane Notre Dame Invitational, and she finished as the team’s second-fastest runner at the SEC Championships and the NCAA Southeast Regional meet.
Once the indoor season began, Mueller shifted to middle distances and had a banner season. She was Carolina’s top performer in the 800m and the mile, including an 11th-place result in the mile at the SEC Championships. Her mile PR of 4:52.45 ranks fourth in Carolina history.
Outdoors, Mueller posted Carolina’s top times in the 800m, 1500m and 3000m. She won the 800 at the USC Open and finished 16th in the 1500 at the SEC meet.
Mueller is a star in the classroom, with a 4.00 GPA as a pharmacy major. She’s a five-time SEC Academic Honor Roll selection and has helped the Carolina cross country squad earn three consecutive USTFCCCA All-Academic Team honors.
