Mikayla Klein is the September Girls Cross Country Athlete of the Month. She is the daughter of Brett and Sue Klein, and is currently in her senior year.

Klein has been running cross country since her sophomore year. She loves the sport for her team and the atmosphere it gives.

To her, being an Athlete of the Month shows she’s been recognized for bringing a lot of positive energy to the sport. “If people are having bad days I try and go up to them and talk to them, and try to make cross country fun and enjoyable to everyone in it,” and she is committed to keep doing so.

In recognition of her achievements, Rotary Club has donated $100 to the ADM Scholarship Foundation
