Hilary Coady

College of Wooster junior Hilary Coady reset her own school record in the pentathlon this past weekend at the All-Ohio Div. III Track & Field Championships, and in doing so, earned North Coast Athletic Conference Athlete-of-the-Week honors, the league office announced Monday afternoon.

The multi-event standout scored 3,201 points while competing against Ohio's best, which topped the 3,029 she recorded at last year's NCAC Championships.

Coady placed second in three of five events, including the 60 meters, where she reset another of her school records with a time of 9.42. She was also runner-up in the shot put with a 32-foot heave, and in the 800 meters (2:26.09), as she was just edged out in a photo finish.

For Coady, the Athlete-of-the-Week award is the second of her career. Also noteworthy, it marks the fourth consecutive week a Fighting Scot track and field athlete has been honored by the NCAC this season.

Next up, Coady will join her teammates as the All-Ohio's continue Saturday on the campus of Otterbein University in Westerville, Ohio.
