Field Athlete of the Week
Mona Koko / FR / University of Valley Forge / Anchorage, Alaska / Anchorage HS
In her first collegiate meet, Koko took the throws by storm for the Patriots. The first year thrower tossed a discus 39.45m to earn first out of 43 competitors including a number of Division II throwers. She then collected a fourth-place finish (out of 36) in the shot put as she hurled the shot 10.51m. Her mark in the discus is good enough for fifth in the Mid-Atlantic Region and 17th in all of Division III while her shot put mark is ranked 12th in the region.
This is Koko's first United East weekly accolade of her career.
