Clara Benson Honour Award

Katrina Innanen has enjoyed great success on the track, in the classroom and in the community during her five seasons with the Varsity Blues. On the track, Innanen is a two-time U SPORTS all-Canadian, two-time OUA first team all-star, was named the OUA female rookie of the year in 2016 and was a member of two U SPORTS championship track and field teams. She won the 2023-20 OUA female student-athlete community service award, is a four-time academic all-Canadian, an R. Tait McKenzie society scholar and was nominated for a Rhodes scholarship in 2023.

When she's not at the track or in the classroom, the three-year team captain volunteers her time with numerous on-campus initiatives. She helped the track and field team organize events such as light the night walk, trick or eat, the spring community clean up as well as Movember and Think Pink campaigns. Innanen is the president of the SAMHI (Student-Athlete Mental Health Initiative) U of T chapter, which raises awareness for mental health and wellbeing in student-athlete populations.

In addition, she is the co-president of U of T's Varsity Board, volunteered with the Blues Buddy UP program, is a four-year volunteer note taker at U of T and sat on the first-year athlete orientation panel for the past three seasons.
