Wehunt, who finished second overall at the FSU Invitational, has a twin brother, Dan, and a sister, Emily, who also run for the Gryphons.

So who's older, you or your brother Dan?

Dan, by a minute.

What's it like running with your brother?

We talk about the race, like the night before, and what we expect from each other. We motivate each other.

Has Dan ever beaten you in a race?

Well ... we used to race the 400 meters in middle school. I think he's beaten me there.

What made your sister decide to start running?

I guess she saw that we were doing it, and my Mom wanted her to try it - so she started last year and now she really likes it.

What are your goals for this year?

To win state as a team, or individually. I would rather win as a team, because I think it would be a much better experience. Also I want to get a PR of 15:40.
