Fox Chapel sophomore Kate Carnevale missed the entire track season last year with an injury. This season, she’s been racing to make up for lost time.

She has finished first in both the 100- and 200-meter dashes in all of the Foxes’ dual meets. Last week at the Butler Invitational, she finished third in the 200 and fifth in the 100. She also is on the FC basketball team.

For her efforts, she is The Herald Spotlight Athlete.
