Athlete of the Week

Aarik Wilson, Indiana
JR, Fallon, Nev./Churchill Co.
Wilson collects Athlete of the Week after leading the Cream and Crimson at the Hoosier Classic on Saturday.  The eight-time All-American notched a pair of victories as well as NCAA provisional qualifying marks in the long jump and triple jump.  Wilson's leap of 7.49 meters in the long jump was sixth-tenths more than the runner-up and his triple jump mark of 15.67 meters fell just short of an automatic standard.  The Fallon, Nev., native capped off the Classic with a sixth place finish in the 60-meter dash.
