LHU Track and Field's Mushonga and Slotterback Merit PSAC Weekly Honors

   
  (Lock Haven, Pa.) -  Anesu Mushonga (Harare, Zimbabwe/Prince Edward) and Nick Slotterback (Lewisburg/Lewisburg), both athletes on the Lock Haven University of Pennsylvania men’s track and field team, earned Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) Track Athlete and Field Athlete of the Week honors.
                Mushonga, the PSAC Men’s Track Athlete of the Week and a junior at Lock Haven, set a new school and site record in the 200 meters at the LHU Qualifier by finishing in 21.62.  It is the best time among conference competitors this season.  Mushonga also took top spots as a member of the 4x100 (41.36) and 4x400 (3:16.98) relays, and was second in the 100-meter dash (11.07).
                Slotterback earned PSAC Men’s Field Athlete of the Week honors after posting a season best in the javelin with a throw of 209’0” at the LHU Qualifier.  His winning mark met NCAA provisional standards and ranks him second best in the conference and sixth in Division II. 
                The men’s and women’s track and field teams will both compete in the PSAC Outdoor Championships this week.  Lock Haven University will serve as host of the conference championships from May 8-10 at Hubert Jack Stadium.
