DALLAS – After winning the weight throw at the Houston Invitational last Friday, Nick Hicks earned the Conference USA Male Field Athlete of the Week, the league office announced Tuesday afternoon.
"Nick had another outstanding meet this past week eclipsing the 20-meter barrier twice. I'm looking forward to seeing what he can do this week at New Mexico," said men's track and field head coach Jon Warren.
Hicks won the weight throw for the second-straight week, most recently with a distance of 65-10.5, a season best. He currently sits at first in C-USA and third in the DI South-Central Region.
This marks the second-straight week that Rice has won the C-USA Field Athlete of the Week, with Alexander Slinkman earning the honor a week ago.
The Owls will be back in action Friday and Saturday at the New Mexico Collegiate Classic.
