Men's Track & Field

Jonathan Volpe, Chris Amy Take Home NE10 Weekly Awards

Southern Connecticut men's outdoor track & field standouts Jonathan Volpe and Chris Amy both received Northeast 10 weekly awards after Week 1 of the outdoor season. Volpe was named NE10 Track Athlete of the Week, and Amy was named Rookie of the Week. 

Volpe continued his dominant year by breaking his own 1500m record at the UConn Dog Fight with a time of 3:45.47. That time ranks first in the NE10 and 13th in all of Division II, and meets the NCAA Provisional Mark for the event. He broke the 1500m record for the first time last season. Volpe has now set two program records this year after running the fastest 1000m in program history during the indoor season. This marks his third time being named NE10 Track Athlete of the Week this year. He also took home NE10 Runner of the Week honors twice during the cross country season. 

Amy shined in his outdoor debut, recording a personal-best throw of 16.59m at the UConn Dog Fight, placing third. That distance ranks first in the NE10 and 25th in all of Division II. This is Amy's first time winning Rookie of the Week after taking home NE10 Field Athlete of the Week honors once during the indoor season. 

Volpe, Amy, and the Owls return to action this weekend, traveling to the Providence Friar Invitational and hosting the Wilton Wright Invitational.
