NDSU's Goodman Claims Summit League Track Athlete of the Week Award

ELMHURST, Ill. – North Dakota State’s Antoinette Goodman was named The Summit League’s Women’s Outdoor Track and Field Athlete of the Week for her performance at the Howard Wood Dakota Relays on May 2-3.

Goodman collects her third career Outdoor Athlete of the Week award and second this season after recording a pair of first-place finishes at the Howard Wood Dakota Relays. She clocked a school-record time of 11.36 in the 100-meter dash which ranks first in The Summit League and 22nd in the nation. Goodman crossed the finish line in a wind-aided time of 22.83 in the 200-meter dash, a time that would be tied for seventh in the nation.

The senior from Burnsville, Minn., broke her previous school record in the 100 meters by a remarkable 0.28 seconds. In the NCAA’s Midwest Region which spans nine states, Goodman is ranked No. 1 in both the 100m and 200m this season.

If the qualifying period for the NCAA West Preliminary Rounds ended today, Goodman could earn spots in five different events – the 100m, 200m, long jump, 4x100m relay and 4x400m relay – which would be an NDSU record.

The Bison will host the NDSU Tune-Up at Schlanser Track on May 9.
