Four track and field student-athletes were tabbed Lone Star Conference Athlete of the Week honors for their efforts, league officials announced today.
MEN’S TRACK
Isidro Garcia, Angelo State University, SO, Crane, Texas, Crane HS
Garcia has been part of two winning relay teams this season as Angelo State’s sprint medley relay team ran a 3:24.46 at the Incarnate Word Invitational (3/5) and the 4x400 relay team ran a 3:14.01 to win at the Trinity Open (2/25). The 4x400 time was also an NCAA provisional qualifying mark and is the top time in the LSC thus far. Garcia has been impressive on his own as well, as the sophomore posted the top 800-meter time (1:57.25) at the Trinity Open (2/25), also a conference-leading mark.
MEN’S FIELD
Trevor Rogers, Angelo State University, JR, El Sobrante, Calif., De Anza HS
Rogers has yet to be defeated in the long jump, winning the event at both the Trinity Open (2/25) and Incarnate Word Invitational (3/5) outdoor meets and posting the top mark at both indoor meets he competed in. Both of the junior’s outdoor jumps were NCAA provisional qualifying marks and his leap of 24’5.5” at Incarnate Word is the top mark in the conference and second-best long jump in the nation this season. Rogers also has the top 100-meter time in the conference at 10.99 seconds, run at the Trinity Open.
WOMEN’S TRACK
Theresa Sue, Angelo State University, SO, Fort Worth, Texas, Saginaw HS
Sue is making a habit of standing at the top of the podium early this season as the sophomore has contributed to four winning times in three different events. As an individual, Sue is undefeated in the 400-meter run with wins at the Trinity Open (2/25) and Incarnate Word Invitational (3/5). Sue’s time of 58.45 at Trinity is the top time in the LSC. She has also seen success as a member of ASU’s 4x100- and 4x400-meter relay teams which claimed titles at the Trinity Open. Sue contributed to the 4x100 team’s NCAA provisional qualifying and LSC leading time of 47.28, and to the 4x400 team’s top LSC mark of 4:00.86.
WOMEN’S FIELD
Kelsey Wilson, Angelo State University, JR, Rocksprings, Texas, Rocksprings HS
Wilson posted an NCAA provisional qualifying pole vault of 12’2” at the Incarnate Word Invitational (3/5) to win the event. Wilson’s vault is the top mark in the country by a little more than two inches. The junior finished second at the Trinity Open with a vault of 11’9.75”. Wilson is one of four Rambelles who will compete at the NCAA Division II Indoor National Championships in Albuquerque, N.M., this weekend.
