Mullarkey Named Track Athlete of the Week

LANCASTER, Pa. -- Swarthmore senior Cait Mullarkey was selected as the Centennial Conference Women's Track & Field Co-Athlete of the Week Tuesday afternoon.

Last Friday, Mullarkey (Wilmington, Del. / Ursuline Academy) shaved 15 seconds off her school record in the women's 3,000 steeplechase with a time of 10:47.00 at the Bucknell University Bison Outdoor Classic. It is themullarkey_trackncaas_09 fastest steeplechase run in Division III so far this season and just three seconds of the NCAA automatic qualifier.

Sharing the accolade with Mullarkey is Muhlenberg junior Alex Faust, who broke two school records in field events.

This is Mullarkey's third weekly honor from the Centennial in 2008-09- she was selected twice (Jan. 13, Jan. 20) during her All-American season in the indoor venues.

The Garnet track & field team train this week in preparation for the annual Widener Open held on April 17-18.
