LOCK HAVEN, Pa. – Slippery Rock University thrower
Seaton Wozniak was named the Male Field Athlete of the Week when the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference announced its final track & field weekly awards of the season Tuesday.
Â
A senior from Slippery Rock, Pennsylvania, Wozniak was recognized for his efforts in a pair of throwing events at the Ashland Alumni Open last weekend.
Â
Wozniak was the only track & field athlete in the PSAC to improve on a No. 1 mark in the conference last week when he recorded a career-best throw of 52.27 meters in the discus at Ashland. That effort placed him fourth overall, but first among Division II athletes in the invite section of the event. That throw also improved on his season best and still sees him as the only athlete in the PSAC with an NCAA mark in the discus.
Â
He also recorded an NCAA provisional mark of 17.41 meters in the shot put to place third overall and first among all collegiate athletes competing in the invite section of the event, which was won by World Indoor Championships silver medalist
Jordan Geist, assistant coach at SRU and one of the top throwers in the world.
Â
Slippery Rock will compete in the PSAC Championships this Thursday through Saturday at Shippensburg University.
