BRENTWOOD, Tenn. – University of Tennessee at Martin sophomore athlete Will Cahill has been named an Ohio Valley Conference Male Track Athlete of the Week after a strong showing at the Bellarmine Open last week.
Cahill, a native of Lexington, Ky., not only finished first at the Bellarmine Open last week in the men’s 3k but set a new meet record with his personal-best time. He paced the field with a time of 8:18.2 and narrowly missed out on the program record by just two seconds. He also helped lead his DMR squad to a first-place finish by running the anchor stretch with a total time of 10:23.88.
Along with his individual success, Cahill helped the team finish first at the Bellarmine Open with 100 total points.
