ROCHESTER, NY -
Allie Cary (Liverpool, NY/Liverpool) of the Utica University women's outdoor track and field team has been named this week's Empire 8 Field Athlete of the Week, for the second consecutive week, as announced by the league on Monday.
Cary opened a dominant weekend at the Red Dragon Open with standout performances in the hammer and discus. She placed fourth in the hammer (47.57m), a mark that landed her third on the program's all-time leaderboard, before winning the discus with a 44.30m throw, taking first place by 6.35m, breaking the program record, and ranking ninth nationally in NCAA Division III at the time. Cary carried that momentum into Saturday in Utica, continuing her impressive run with three more event titles. She won the hammer with a 47.34m toss, added a victory in the shot put at 12.85m, and secured the discus title with a 36.90m mark. Cary finished the weekend with four total wins, showcasing her dominance across all throwing events.
Cary and the Pioneers return to action on Satruday, April 11 as the team makes the short trip to the Continental Spring Inivtational, hosted by Hamilton College. Start time is set for 10:00am.
