Beverly Elcock wins MAC Women's Track Athlete of the Week

CLEVELAND, Ohio (EMUEagles.com) - Beverly Elcock, Eastern Michigan University's standout mid-distance runner, was named the Mid-American Conference's Women's Track Athlete of the Week, Tuesday, Feb. 15, by the conference office. It marks the second time this season the junior has won the award, after taking home her first weekly award in December.

Elcock set a new standard for the Mid-American Conference in the 800-meter run, finishing the event in a time of 2:06.86. The time currently ranks as the 18th-best in the nation this year and is also the fastest time in the conference in three years. With her time, Elcock also ran the second-fastest time in school history. She finished third in the event behind two University of Michigan runners who set the top two times in the nation this year during the same race. Elcock also ran the lead leg in the 4x400-meter team which finished first on the day.

Elcock and the Eagles will be back in action Friday, Feb, 18, in the squad's final preparation for the MAC Championships in Bowling Green, Ohio the following weekend.
