(Lock
Haven, Pa.) - Joe Webster (Folcroft/Monsignor Bonner),
a senior sprinter on the Lock Haven University of Pennsylvania track and field
team, earned Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) Men’s Track
Athlete of the Week honors. Webster,
along with Andy Pollison (Long Valley, N.J./West Morris Central) and Jennifer
Farrow (Canton/Athens), were also selected as Eastern College Athletic
Conference (ECAC) Track and Field Athletes of the Week.
Webster earns his third-straight ECAC Track
Athlete of the Week award and his first PSAC honor of the season after setting
a school record with a PSAC leading time of 21.70 in the 200 meters at the
Lafayette Invitational. He placed
second in the event overall, but was the top Division II finisher.
At Lock Haven’s PSAC Tri-Meet earlier in the week, Webster led off on
the winning 4x100 meter relay team which set a school record and provisionally
qualified for nationals with a time of 41.15.
He also pocketed a win in the 800 meters (2:00.41) and was a member of
the winning 4x400 meter relay.
Andy Pollison, a junior, earned ECAC Field Athlete of the Week honors after
scoring a pair of first-place finishes in the pole vault this past week.
He won the PSAC Tri-Meet pole vault with a height of 15’0”, then
captured another top finish at the Lafayette Invitational after clearing
14’9”.
Jennifer
Farrow was selected as the ECAC Track Athlete of the Week. The senior Lady
Eagle posted a stadium and meet record with her win in the 800 meters at the
PSAC Tri-Meet on Wednesday, recording a 2:14.73.
That mark is currently the second best in the conference.
She also ran on the winning 4x100 and 4x400 meter relays at the meet. At
the Lafayette Invitational over the weekend, Farrow captured a first-place
finish in the 400 meters, winning by 1-1/2 seconds in an national provisional
qualifying time of 56.07. She was
also second in the 200 meters (25.10) and was a member of the fourth-place
4x100 relay.
