ROCK HILL, S.C. (TheSAC.com) – The South Atlantic Conference announced its WePlayed Sports Men's Indoor Track and Field Athletes of the Week for meets contested during the seventh week of competition. Carson-Newman's Andre Morrison team earned the track honor while Emory & Henry's Drew Craft garnered field accolades.
Morrison, a junior sprinter from Spanish Town, St. Catherine, Jamaica, broke his own school record from just a few weeks ago in the 60m while winning the event at the Music City Challenge hosted by Vanderbilt with a 6.60. He previously broke the C-N record with a 6.63 at the VMI Invitational breaking the record held by 13-time All-American Devon Moore. His time ranks as the second-best time in the 60m dash across all of Division II this year.
Craft, a jumper from Covington, Va., won the long jump (6.76m) in school-record fashion at the Joe LaRocco Invitational Saturday. He also won the triple jump (13.95m) and was seventh in the high jump (1.79m).
