COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. – Adams State University senior
Roisin Flanagan has been named the Week Four Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference (RMAC) Track Athlete of the Week by conference officials on Wednesday afternoon.
Flanagan closed the weekend in peak form and set the NCAA Division II record in the women's 5,000m event at the Mt. SAC Relays in Walnut, Calif. She crossed the finish line with a 15:28.41 to finish 10th overall in a stacked field. Her performance marks her season-opening appearance for the Grizzlies as Flanagan now holds the fastest time of the 2022 season by more than 30 seconds.
After posting several stellar marks at four meets over the weekend, the Grizzlies will have a week off before they travel to Spearfish, S.D., for the 2022 Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference Championships.
