Graduate student Issac Prather of the Concord University men's track & field team has been named the Mountain East Conference Athlete of the Week, presented by The Health Plan, the league office announced Monday afternoon.
Prather started the outdoor campaign by clocking the second-fastest 3,000-meter steeplechase time in Division II as he won the event at the Myrtle Beach Collegiate Challenge with a time of 9:02.45. Earlier in the meet, the Summersville, West Virginia native helped CU's 4x800-meter relay team to a runner-up finish as the Mountain Lions stopped the timer at 8:01.14.
With Prather scoring 12 points in the meet, CU finished third as a team.
Concord returns to the track Friday and Saturday at High Point's Bill Webb Invite.
