Hortonville senior Jake Krause has been selected as the PlayInTheDells.com Athlete of the Week after a vote on WSN. 

There were 6,797 total votes this week. Jake topped all vote getters with 2,260 votes. Shorewood's Austin Gayle came in second just behind Jake with 2,122 votes.

Jake finished his prep cross country career at Hortonville on the highest of notes, capturing a state championship. In his junior season last year, Jake finished 63rd at the state meet. This year he finished a fair share better, leading the pack and finishing first in the Division 1 field with a time of 15:34.2. He finished a little over eight seconds ahead of second place finisher Cael Grotenhuis of Slinger. Jake's first place finish helped Hortonville finish third overall in Division 1.
