Galloway, Horban snag weekly conference honors

INDIANAPOLIS- The University of Indianapolis track and field team continued its domination of the Great Lakes Valley Conference Outdoor Field Athlete of the Week honor, as sophomore Seth Galloway and senior Andrea Horban garnered their respective gender's award this week.  It marks the second athlete of the week nod for each recipient just three weeks into the outdoor season.

Galloway won his fourth straight meet in the javelin with a winning heave of 59.85-meter toss at the Little State Open at Indiana Wesleyan.  The throw not only won the javelin event but also improved upon his provisional mark.  Galloway also won the GLVC Men's Outdoor Field Athlete of the Week after claiming the title in the javelin at the Oliver Nikoloff Invitational two weeks ago.

UIndy thrower Andrea Horban claimed her second straight GLVC Women's Outdoor Field Athlete of the Week award after breaking the Indiana Wesleyan stadium record this past weekend with a toss of 14.08 meters in the shot put. She also finished third behind teammate Amy Schmitz in the women's hammer, just missing the provisional qualifying standard with a 49.46 meter toss. She concluded the day long event with a seasonal best in the discus, 40.84m, to finish fourth overall.

UIndy heads to a pair of meets this weekend, traveling to the EKU Open at Eastern Kentucky University Friday and the Dave Rankin Invite at Purdue University Saturday.
